If they are temp, then its possible that they are being deleted when the
program is closed. Also, are the settings for all files and all
extensions. If it is not, then there may be some hidden work spaces
that you will not be able to see with the default folder views.

Hi Keith.
I appreciate the suggestions on improving the computer!!
However that doesn't answer the questions which wee : where do these
particular temp folders disappear to ??? Why can't I access them to
delete the temp files??

with only 256 ram means that the swap file has to be rather large
when working on something like Word (a very large memory hog). More
memory would definately help and a larger hard drive would also.
With SP2, there has to be lots of self generated backups and
restores. All of this takes space.

Hi.
A client has a Pentium3 600 with 256MB and a 20GB hard drive running
XP Pro.with SP2
If she opens a Word attachment it seems to be saved in a temporary
folder under C:\Profiles\Admin.COMPUTER\Local Settings\Temporary
Internet Files\Content.IE5.
As she has a lot of these attachments the temp file is getting very
large but there is no way to delete it!!
If I go to the address it doesn't exist. If I do a search nothing is
found. If I clear the files through Internet Options, they're still
there! The folder is getting larger and larger but can only be seen
when I open the attachment to Word, then do "save As'. This brings
up the save box containing all these temp files.
Anyone any suggestions?
Thanks
Bram
