    For those of you newbies begging for ios's or esd's have care. Begging is a sure way to get banned.

    Is the "install.esd" file being pushed out the same everywhere regardless of Windows SKU? I wanna know if I can create two different SKU ISOs from it.


    I have a laptop running Win8.1 x64 Core Single Language and desktop on Win7 x64 Ultimate. The update is being downloaded to my desktop right now (2.61GB tmp file in %Windir%\SoftwareDistribution\Download\8f36b36c5f97d84a69eedf4ec27435ec). Is it possible that I can make Win10 Home (laptop) and Win10 Pro (desktop) ISOs from just the one ESD file? If yes, then someone has uploaded an ESD file in this thread so maybe I can use that to create ISO...

    IMO 2 SKUs will have 2 ISOs/ESD files. I am not very sure if you can edit a Windows set up configuration file to change from one SKU to the other.

    Has anybody with a complete download tried changing the time of their computer to see if that allows the upgrade to start?

    The C:\$Windows.~BT folder now sizes up at 3.34 GB and the folder also has a 2.63 GB install.esd file.

    But there's some background download going on at full speed. Not sure what else is coming in.

    PS - Task Manager shows a Windows 10 setup.exe running along with Windows Update and Modern Setup Host.

    But no prompts to proceed with the upgrade just yet.

    PS - download stopped. Folder size 4.09 GB. No upgrade prompt as of now. Maybe at midnight tonight? :)

    Strangly enough the tmp file in Software distribution folder is stuck at 2.61 gb and with a tmp extension. after which another 1.5 GB was downloaded on my otherwise idle system. And the Windows BT folder is still stuck at 140mb, only god or MSFT knows what went where :confused::confused::confused:

    And now I cant see any downloads happening ???

    Quick question for those who finished the whole download, can you check how much data was actually "downloaded" from the internet (not space used on HDD)?

    I am on a capped internet connection, if I get more than 4GB in a day, I'll be put on speed limit, already downloaded 3GBs for windows itself, and it wanted to continue but I stopped it (Stopped the service BITS - Background Intelligent Transfer Service, which is the one responsible for downloading everything microsoft).

    Some said they got 7GB, which is HUGE for my connection...

    Thanks...

    Are you forced to update to Windows 10 on a Windows 7 machine, seems like the 10 update download is automatic.
