Deleting temp int. files using Vista Outlook 2007?
Using Vista and Outlook 2007.
Found article: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/securetemp.htm and Vista moves the Temp Internet folder to C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\ Temporary Internet Files\, so you'll need to look there for the OLK or Content.Outlook folder. When i delete temp int files, i go to: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\ Temporary Internet Files\, But i just hit "cntrl-A" and delete all so there isn't a "OLK or Content.Outlook folder"? I also recently discovered more temp files by not clicking on my user name but the generic "user" and found more but again i just hit "cntrl A" and delete all: C:\Users\users\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Tem porary Internet Files I researched further by clicking on: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/securetemp.htm where i found: To view the securetemp folder, at Start menu, run, type : %temp% and expand the Temporary Internet Folders branch to show the OLK* folder(s) in the Folder list (left side of screen). Click the Folders button in the Explorer toolbar (or View, Explorer Bar, Folders) if the folder list is not shown. Of course for me this just takes me to the temp int folder which now only contains a few more temp files needing to be deleted. THere is no "OLK" folder. I also found the secure temp folder and Office 12.0 was already in the At start menu, Run, type regedit to open the registry editor. Browse to this key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\xx.0\O utlook\Security OutlookSecureTempFolder value SOOO, Bottom line question is am i deleting temp files correctly by deleting everything in: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\ Temporary Internet Files\ and after i do that why are there still temp int files when i go to: C:\Users\users\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Tem porary Internet Files Do i need to create an "OLK" folder within temp int. folder being that i deleted everything in this folder already? |

Bottom line; Run Disk Cleanup to remove temp files, & dont worry about
anything else Temp Internet files can be deleted within IE Tools, where you can also ammend the size settings for temp "ritzput" wrote in message ... Using Vista and Outlook 2007.

Perhaps I should have added, for the most part your points relate to your

... SOOO, Bottom line question is am i deleting temp files correctly by deleting everything in: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\ Temporary Internet Files\ No. Windows Explorer will not show folder structures below Temportary Internet Files unless you know the name of the folder and include it in the Address bar manually. Do i need to create an "OLK" folder within temp int. folder being that i deleted everything in this folder already? No. If you do manage to delete the OLK folder, Outlook will create a new one for itself. Why not use the registry key described on the web page you cited to a folder over which you have more control? -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |

This, however, has little to do with Outlook. You can put Outlook's Secure Temp Folder anywhere you like. It doesn't have to stay under Temporary Internet Files where you can't see it by browsing in Windows Explorer. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |
