Hi everyone,

From today, Microsoft is downloading the Windows 10 installation files  to Windows 7 and 8.1 users who have Automatic Updates enabled.  This does not mean that your Windows installation will automatically change - you need to approve the update once it has downloaded.  If you don't update, the files - which take up between 4gb and 6 gb - will still reside on your hard disk though.

Whilst RealSense is awesome on Windows 10, you may not personally want to upgrade yet.  If this is the case, VentureBeat offers a guide to prevent the automatic download from occurring.
