    Delete Windows~BT folder before upgrade


    Hi,

    I have downloaded the Windows 10 Pro ISO using Media Creation Tool and I wanted to know if it is safe to delete the Windows~BT folder before doing the upgrade. Will it cause some mess with the upgrade process if I delete it or just to leave it intact?

    Thanks, *Smile

    :)
