    Windows 10 installing to other drive beside C:


    Finally switched from 7 to 10. Still finding out stuff and making tweaks to it.

    I have three HDD's and one M.2 SSD. I installed 10 to the SSD and found out that part of the install went to the F drive.
    I had to physically unplug D, E and F for 10 to install completely to the C drive.

    Bug with Windows 10 or what?

    :)

    I suggest creating a backup image of your os drive
