    Mine would only allow it through disk cleanup and clean system files!

    Ok to delete $Windows10.~BT folder after install?

    Disk cleanup doesn't list $Windows10.~BT folder. I tried just deleting but it would't allow. *Confused

    This did work. I needed to do an extra step which I over looked, System cleanup files. That took care of it.

    Thanks Ossie!
