Temporary Internet Files Deleted!
This is a discussion about Temporary Internet Files Deleted! in the Windows Software category; Whenever I have to press the reset button, on reboot I find that all my Temporary Internet Files are deleted. The temp folder is on a different hard drive than the Windows installation. Using Windows 2000 with SP1 and IE5.

OP
The box is not ticked.
This only happens if I, after the pc crash, have to press the reset button.
It has never happened after a normal shutdown or reboot.
I do notice that the pc takes a little longer to boot after a crash. Right before the desktop comes up, there is lots of disk activity for 10-20 seconds. I guess this is when the files are deleted.
BUT WHY ?

ahhh, on a crash like that the 'puter doesnt write whats written in memory to the hd.
the extra time is windows checking things because of the abnormal shutdown... just a guess but temp internet files wouldnt be a priority.
