| | Windows Vista strange settings on temp folder AppData\Local\Temp\1 First off, i am trying to figure out what causes my temp folder to move from AppData\Local\Temp to AppData\Local\Temp\1. When i log out and log back in, then it becomes AppData\Local\Temp\2. Secondly, the AppData\Local\Temp\1 folder has strange permissions, where it has these users and groups listed: NULL SID Everyone SYSTEM CREATOR OWNER CREATOR GROUP each item has 0 permssions. Lastly, my app trys to write to this folder using C++ ::CopyFile. It crashes rather than returning fasle. Thanks for any suggestions. Nick Bauer |

| | RE: Windows Vista strange settings on temp folder AppData\Local\Temp\1 I too am having this problem. What's really strange is that %TEMP% takes me to the AppData\Local\Temp\2 directory, but the value for TEMP in advanced system settings -> Environment Variables is set to AppData\Local\Temp (without the 2). These settings are the same for the administrator and the user (obviously they are using different base directories). Another note: It appears that some files are dumped to AppData\Local\Temp while others are dumped to AppData\Local\Temp\2. I don't see any patterns here yet except that the \2 directory has less files.
