Default Temp folder delete

Hi Thomas,

If you delete the \Temp folder, then just create a new Folder, then
simply rename New Folder to Temp. You want to use Explore and go to \Windows
there create the New Folder, a sub-folder of \Windows. So when you are
finished, it looks like C:\Windows\Temp.

And what you previously described, you also deleted \Temporary Internet
Files folder, which is a sub-folder of \Windows\. You need to recreate that
folder and go into Internet Explorer 6 Options point its Temporary Internet
Files location to that location.

The MSDOS window with those 4 lines appear after Win 98 boot is complete.
I
can close the DOS window and everything is normal. I'd just like to fix
what
I
screwed up. Which DIR would I look (C:\Windows or C:\) to find these
files?
If "Find:" isn't the proper DOS term for locating a file in DOS could you
tell
me what is? Thanks

Are these lines appearing during the system boot? If so, I can't see
how
deleting the TEMP folder would have caused those messages to appear.
They
seem to be the last few lines of a batch file of some sort - perhaps a

file
to clear out all the temporary IE files. Do Start | Run and enter

MSConfig
and OK, and then look at AutoExec.BAT to see what might be running during
startup that could create these lines in the command window.

Or are they appearing as the last few lines left on a DOS screen that is

all
you are getting when you try to start Windows? If so, try typing WIN and
see if Windows starts. Or EXIT and then WIN.

I was doing some housekeeping and accidentally deleted the Temp Folder.

Now

C:\WINDOWS\COOKIES\INDEX.DAT
C:\WINDOWS\HISTORY\HISTORY.IE5\INDEX.DAT
C:\WINDOWS\TEMPOR~1\CONTENT.E5\INDEX.DAT
C:\EXIT
