Is it possible to move the Windows 10 downloaded installation files/folder, $Windows.~BT? I would like to reinstall Windows 7 before upgrading to Windows 10, but want to backup the Windows 10 installation files first so I don't lose them and have to download them again.
The reason I want to reinstall Windows 7 first is because it is an old, corrupt installation with a lot of junk (old programs etc) that I would like to get rid of before upgrading to Windows 10.
I have seen plenty of instructions for deleting this folder, but I haven't found anything about moving it to another hard drive. I have tried moving it, but much of it remains unmovable. Would booting into DOS or LINUX work? Any help appreciated, thanks.
