| | Vista - Windows Temporary Internet Folder |
| |
| 09-16-2007 | #1 |
| | Windows Temporary Internet Folder I am using Vista Ultimate and really like it but can't understand why it handles the Temporary Internet Folder differently then my old WinXP did. After accessing a webpage my XP TIF listed all the elements of that page... images, sounds, links, and if there was an SWF flash file, or PPS PowerPoint file it would show it in the folder. I could copy that item and paste it into another folder to open it when I wanted.. Now, after viewing an SWF file or want to copy an image that was on the original webpage it isn't listed. It is even different listing cookies. If I accessed TIF under XP I could delete individual cookies dealing with Advertising etc. Now, those cookies aren't listed.. Can anyone explain why and is there some way to configure TIF to show all elements? Thanks in advance for any help.. Jack |

| | Re: Windows Temporary Internet Folder Hi, Are you accessing the Temporary Internet Files from the TIF viewer? Go to Internet Options> General> Browsing history> Settings> View files. If you then select View> Details, then click on the Type column to sort by type, it should be easier to find what you're looking for. Sorting by Last Modified should make it easy to find a file from a site you just visited. Also, clearing the TIF won't clear cookies so it will be very easy to find them after clearing out the TIF folder. Hope this helps, Don [MS MVP- IE] "Jack " <jrhondeau@xxxxxx> wrote in message news EA4C7FC-E4DD-4C02-A56C-75A2D7C8C5ED@xxxxxxQuote: > I am using Vista Ultimate and really like it but can't understand > why it handles the Temporary Internet Folder differently then > my old WinXP did. > > After accessing a webpage my XP TIF listed all the elements > of that page... images, sounds, links, and if there was an SWF > flash file, or PPS PowerPoint file it would show it in the folder. > > I could copy that item and paste it into another folder to open > it when I wanted.. > > Now, after viewing an SWF file or want to copy an image that > was on the original webpage it isn't listed. > > It is even different listing cookies.

| | Re: Windows Temporary Internet Folder About cookies: Look in C:\Users\My Name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows. Then in Organize\Folder and Search Options\View, put a check in "Show hidden files and folders" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files". This will show you the 'rest of' your cookies.
