Hi,
Wow, I tried to figure this out some time back, I knew how on other OS's,
kinda felt ****ed that I couldn't see the Content IE5 via explore and
using Windows Explorer!!


You should be able to now that you know the actual
location of this data within the file system. Just reading
what is in the address bar tells you the actual location.

This method supplied by Gary S. Terhune is also the
way to change that location if desired. When I had
Win98 I put those files on my D drive - so just my
knowing where they are on my system may not have
helped you. I opted to show you a way to find out
where they were located on your own system.

Thank you so much, forgot about this issue until PCR reminded me!!


It confused me too for some time - I went from Win95/
Win98/Linux Mandrake to XP Pro and Vista and found
that I couldn't find many of the things I wanted (I knew
where they were located in Win9x) until I discovered
many were accessible by navigating through the help files.
Once I accessed them, I could usually get the actual name
and location from the "properties" dialog. That is why I
accessed it through the cleanmgr utility (help files) and then
the address bar once accessed.

Nothing of value beyond this point - just getting "chatty".

OMG, how simple, is this the only way via Clean Mgr., never would have
discovered on my own ! ?


I've been "computering" since 1970 - the Dartmouth Time
Sharing System. I discovered many many things through
the help system it offered. Old habits die hard, especially
when they are fruitful.

This was teletype access computering, and typing a wrong
command syntax would result in a dialog ending with for
instance "...illegal use of the command old type explain old"
Only the first three letters were actually used in commands
so I decided to type EXP EXP since EXP was a command.

Paydirt! Every command that had an explanation on file was
listed - so great lengths of teletype paper would be expended
so that I would have a hardcopy of each command and its
proper usage.

Can you tell me how to viwe the Content IE5 inside my TIF??
I know how on W-98-SE, use Windows Explorer to browse, but this doesn't
work on XP for me??


start - run - cleanmgr
select Temporary Internet Files.
then click the "View Files' button.
Read the location if disired - or just browse.


Bottom line - help files are ... well ... helpful.
