| | Re: How can I find Temp files in AppData Rosy The Temp folder should be here: C:\Users\your username\AppData\Local\Temp. The AppDat is normally a hidden folder, so you may need to select Organize/Folder and Search Options/View Tab. Select the "Show hidden files and folders" option. Let us know if you need more help. -- Ronnie Vernon Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User "Rosy Colours" <Rosy Colours@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:0ABCE881-A75B-47FA-A750-FCDA4A0CDE4D@xxxxxx Quote: > hiya - I realise I was saving work on a downloaded attachement without > doing > 'save as' Now I can't find it - I don't believe it's completely gone - I > saw > a folder/AppData/Local/Temp string - might it be there and anyway I can't > relocate that string! > please help > thanks alot > Rosy |

| | Re: How can I find Temp files in AppData Thanks alot - that got me the Temp list - but I can't identify the attachment in the list. Where else might it be or would it be one of the trillions with a codifiied name ie HD something? i've re-done the lost work now but on the other hand I'm determined to extend my competence - even a bit!

| | Re: How can I find Temp files in AppData Rosy You would need the exact name of that file to find it. The main thing you want to do is get in the habit of saving an attachment that you intend to edit to a known location on the hard drive. Then you can open the file directly from that location and you will avoid this situation. -- Ronnie Vernon Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User "Rosy Colours" <RosyColours@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:942F2558-C21D-487D-9CEA-762018859ABC@xxxxxx Quote: > Thanks alot - that got me the Temp list - but I can't identify the > attachment > in the list. > Where else might it be or would it be one of the trillions with a > codifiied > name ie HD something? > i've re-done the lost work now but on the other hand I'm determined to > extend my competence - even a bit! > Rosy > > "Ronnie Vernon MVP" wrote: > Quote: >> Rosy >> >> The Temp folder should be here: >> >> C:\Users\your username\AppData\Local\Temp. >> >> The AppDat is normally a hidden folder, so you may need to select >> Organize/Folder and Search Options/View Tab.

| | Re: How can I find Temp files in AppData Ronnie, How is Vista Ultimate handling streaming vids? They don't seem to be getting saved in the temp folder cache. On my XP machine they are saved to the temp internet folder. On my Vista machine they aren't. Do I need to change a setting or is Vista handling them differently?
