I've reserved the Windows 10 upgrade on my tablet PC (running Win 7). Yesterday Microsoft has started distributing it — though not to everyone at once — saying users will be notified when it's available on their computer "in the coming days or weeks".
I'm not in a hurry, but I'd like to know how I can tell when it's my turn. What are the cues that tell me my computer has started downloading it?
(Other than monitoring network traffic, I mean. Perhaps some file or folder that's created, or some entry in some kind of update log?)
I've already tried running wuauclt.exe/updatenow
in an Administrator command prompt to force the upgrade, as suggested elsewhere on the internet, but I've seen no signs that any kind of update process has started.
There isn't a method to determine when it will be your turn. You can just tell when you have started by the existence of those folders in Jooshua's answer. – Ramhound – 2015-07-30T15:06:43.667
