Quick suggestions.
May a backup of some kind.
Resize a partition and open up about 20 GB of free space.
Install the new version in the new space. This is a custom installation, not  an upgrade. If it fails, restore from the backup.
Works for me.  :)

In my opinion, people install Windows 10 on their Windows 8.1 systems before Windows 10 is officially released for public use are asking for problems.  I have Windows 10 but it's on a separate PC, one that has nothing else on it. 

The other option would be to run Windows 10 as a virtual machine so that the host OS is not affected by it.
