Look on your C: drive, see if you find a folder called $Windows.~BT. That file is created by Windows to “assist in an upgrade to Windows 10.”

I don’t have the file but do have the pop-up and the update is listed and I always uncheck it. Wonder if the file is auto only for those who accepted the reservation?

Found it on my C drive. 4.05gb! Is it safe to delete it?

It's on my Win 7 and is 57 meg.

I’m interested in upgrading but I’ve got a crappy DSL connection. If I allow the file “$Windows.~BT” to download can I copy it to a USB drive and use that file to upgrade another PC? Thanks.
