To redirect the Temporary Internet Files (TIF) location to a different
drive, follow these steps:

a.. Save and close all running applications
b.. Create a folder in the destination drive (say E:\TIF)
c.. Click Start, Run and type CONTROL INETCPL.CPL
d.. In the Temporary Internet Files section, click Settings
e.. Click Move Folder button and browse to the target folder
f.. Click OK
g.. Click Yes, when you see the prompt
"Windows will log you off to finish moving Temporary Internet Files. Do you
want to continue ?"

Windows will now copy all the Cookies, temporary internet files to the
destination folder and log you off. Log back in for the changes to take
effect.

I recently install a bigger harddrive and I now want to move the physical
location of the systems TEMP/Temporary Internet Files from the 'My
Documents' folders of all of my users. I went into
SystemAdvancedEnvironment and pointed everyone's temp files to another
physical partition. The system accepted the changes. I now discover that I
may have missed some other location because when I open the Documents and
SettingsAdministrationLocal SettingsTemporary Internet Files I see day
old file folders? The date on these files go back for the last several
days. One folder "CONTENT.IE5' directory HAS SUBFILES AND FOLDERS WITH
TODAY'S date. Can someone tell me what I missed??
Thanks in advance . . .Tom Johnson.
