In the interests of hygiene I have all my Internet stuff on a separate partition. Infact I try & keep C:\ for just the system.

To that effect I used Internet Tools to move the temp files along with the history file to a separate partition.

However for some reason cookies & history items are now appearing in the old locations on the C:\ drive...

because IE still thinks they are on F:\ these files seem impossible to delete.


eh? Why did they change location? Is there a registry change I can make to prevent the history & temp internet files folders appearing on c:\ at all?

OK see how this goes. Remember what you do incase you have to change it back. Make sure that according to IE the folders are where you want them. Now go to those other folders where the file are ending up. Right click on the folder & select cut. Now go to where IE says they should be & paste it there. Do that for however many folders are giving trouble. Cut & paste.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(
