    To eliminate the folder $Windows.~BT


    Hello, everybody:
    Weeks a go, I've try to install 20H2 via the Assistant of Microsoft. But there's no way. TrustedInstall don't let me uninstall. The guide to change the permissions was very difficult. And so, I've try the Ubuntu via. You know, build a booteable flash drive with Rufus, change the option to boot in BIOS and when Ubuntu starts, tu must choose "Try before install". So, you can to access to all spaces of storage from Ubuntu without be limited by permissions of Microsoft. You must to select the folder named in the title of this thread, and eliminate. If this folder goes to de Recycle Bin of Ubuntu, only yo must to let empty this Bin. That's all.
    I've recovered 14 Gb, from the fail installation of 20H2. Tomorrow, Microsoft offer me via Update this version. 20H2 was installed, this time yes and no one problems are encountered inside.
    I wait for this explanation can help to any person what needed.

    WV: Windows 20H2 comp. (.630) x64.

    :)

    The Windows $BT folder is there in case you want to recover the old OS. It's not needed for an upgrade.

    Hello,

    So about two weeks ago I deleted a $Windows~.BT folder (through the cmd). Now I know that was Windows 10 files ready for install.

    How can I download it again? I'm sure I need to reinstall some update. But which?

    How to eliminate Windows from disk

    Depending on where is the boot partition, just deleting the Windows folders won't eliminate it.
