Been thinking about this upgrade thing for months now I have decided I will push to Windows 10 in June.
But there's a problem, My main partition (C
only have 3.09GB out of 38.9GB left of hard drive space so I am worried that the download will not start.
Is there a way to change the download location to my other partition?

You main problem is not the download wont start, but that you need at least 8GB of free space to perform the upgrade.

I guess you are talking about the windows update download?
I don't think you can change that, I would just skip that process and download the ISO to where you want using the first method here,

Yes, I'm talking about that.
Well it seems that there's no other way but to directly download the ISO from MS's website.
I'm marking this thread as solved. Thanks everyone!

You're welcome, I think it's better that way myself, you're in control of the whole process instead of Windows Update.
