Microsoft is Silently Preloading Windows 10 release

Can someone post ISO links so I can do a fresh install on my PC's? I'm not doing upgrades, I'd rather do fresh installs.

 

Avoided all this by using gpedit to disable the upgrade to a new version of windows through windows update

it is breaking the internet

 

So hold on, in the retail version you can or can't disable auto updates?

 

Ok I checked that folder and it was empty, so I did a WU and two quick updates loaded. Now the folder is 13.5GB.
It is already 7.30am here in Thailand do I run setup or will Windows initiate the install with a update later.

 

You can't.

 

You can stop automatic updates.



Choose 2.

 

Lol since i don't have a working ADSL or anything else i hook up my cellphone for some 4G tethering to play BF3 online, now i see i have a 7GB "$Windows.~BT" folder, who is going to pay me the exceeded data on my mobile plan, Bill Gates?

 

Why can't they just make it an option in the Updates window? Would be nicer than having to go through group policy settings and finding it.

 

So... anyone else here who works in IT preparing for a rough week of work since Win 10 will undoubtedly cause chaos?

 

Opt out of the upgrade would have been the choice.

 

Wait wait wait////

Windows 10 Update is automatic and there is no option to set manual?

I always use "Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them" in Vista>7>8

Is this not possible in Windows 10?

I'm still waiting for Windows 10 to start downloading -__-

It's now 1:54PM on the 29th

 

Wont they release when its the 29th in the US? Joys of us in australia being 12-16hrs ahead. Also I have the folder on my PC that every1 is talking about, have you checked yours? Mines at like 3gb.

 

Yeah I checked.. no folder here for me, I've been checking via windows update for Windows 10 every hour haha.

 

In Windows 10 Pro/Enterprise/Education you have more control over how updates are delivered. You can configure these settings in Group Policy.

 

Strange... yet clever.. this way the average person will always get updates when they are published.

 

Same here with 5 failed updates so far...One from yesterday and 4 today.

 

about the fail, my GF's laptop ASUS have the same as on my HTPC also with mobo from ASUS:

i have check for update/install/manual reboot (it install at start) and again check for update and it was ok

for me it was the reboot wich fail the install.

i haven't search more about it but if it may help

btw W10 is really a nice OS all the peripherical have got their new drivers even the most exotic one, nice surprise.

 

I have the downloaded 6gb stuff in the directory mentioned in OP. So if i understood correctly, we must not restart our PC in order to finish the installation?

 

Ill silently buy it when NVIDIA releases their new GPUs in 2016, i'm in no rush Microsoft
