temp file
I like to keep my temporary folders clean and clear them
regularly, lately there's 1 file I can't seem to delete and of which 1 is added on each reboot. It's in local settings\temp and looks like this ~df????.tmp (the ?'s are single character wildcards). Could somebody tell me what these are, or how I can find out which program is maintaining a lock on this file? Regards, Kees Spierings |
