When Temporary Internet Files are moved to extended
partition via tools, options,.... etc, the folders under
Temp Internet Files are not visible/accessible. Why? Fix?
Thanks,
JG

What's happening has nothing to do with extended partitions and there is no
"fix". The same "problem" exists with the TIF in it's default location. What
you're seeing is name space extensions coming into play. If you really want
to see the directory structure you'll have to do so from command prompt and
make sure that when using the dir command you add the /a option so that
hidden files and directories are displayed.
