Hi Thomas, now you are puzzeling me, after I just have found my temp folder and was happy that everthing worked as expected :) The user shouldn't have a look to my files in temp, I just wanted to check what I am doing. I don't understand what you mean with permissions and hidden folder concerning the temp folder. Should this temp folder usually be hidden (if yes, the better) or do I usually don't have a permission to write to it? (if yes, not good) Could you explain me your thoughts? Thanks Tiemo
