    I have a clean install of W 10 build 10250. This morning appear a new folder in the system drive called "fb7ec1706a8c94fe1e310782" with 2 files inside : mrt.exe ( 124 mb ) and mrtstub.exe ( 88 kb ). My UBR is 16405 by now. ¿ May be the patch for Insiders start to download ? :confused:

    Ok, just worked something out, my folder wasn't appearing, I was on a vpn to the netherlands at the time, I shut down my vpn and now I'm back on my new zealand IP and instantly the folder appeared and it started to download.

    The other thing I did is shutdown utorrent to free up bandwidth right before the folder appeared.

    So, it was either my ip address stopping it download or utorrent hogging all my bandwidth, I suspect it was my IP address as now I'm in New Zealand's IP range its the 29th in under 4 hours.

    Thing is, it still doesn't want to start the upgrade....
    Still says "We'll let you know when the upgrade is ready to be installed on this PC." o_O

    so if its not that then it must be I had utorrent downloading in the background, as I closed my vpn and utorrent at the same time, and as soon as I did the folder appeared and it started to download.

    You guys must wait.
    It first download to some other temporary folder and then copies the files to $Windows.~BT.
    Then it checks for other incompatibilities, downloads other drivers...
    Depending on you hw and download speed it may take a while...

    But as, I've said, no need to rush, even when fully downloaded it still don't wanna trigger the update....
    So just let it do it's thing..
    And maybe in a few hours somebody will push the red button and let us upgrade.

    If the folder is in the Root of the Drive where windows is installed, No folder appeared on my Windows 8.1 Pro Installation. Tried refreshing restarting and all updates are installed, there are a few optional updates which when I try to install, windows says they are not needed. :31:o_O:(

    All Windows updates shows is Your Windows 10 Upgrade reserved. :mad::mad:
