| 127690 | 2003-03-13 05:58:00 | I have Win XP Pro and know that Temporary Internet Files for IE are stored in Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files. What I would like to know is where are they stored for Netscape 6.2? Secondly, by going Start, Settings, Control Panel, Internet Options, General and deleting the temporary files from there I know they are deleted from the Temporary Internet Files folder as above, but are they also deleted from the Netscape folder - wherever that might be - as well? Your comments would be most welcome. Oxie (Lyn) |

| 127691 | 2003-03-13 06:24:00 | If you start Netscape and go Edit-Preferences-Advanced-Cache, it gives the default Disk Cache Folder for your setup in box. You have the option to select and choose where you want the Cache folder to be. | Terry Porritt (14) | ||
| 127692 | 2003-03-13 06:38:00 | Terry I don't seem to have that option. In Netscape 6.2 all I have under Edit, Preferences, Advances, Cache is Clear Memory Cache and Clear Disk Cache. Oxie (Lyn) |

| 127693 | 2003-03-13 07:23:00 | Oh, I was quoting for Netscape 7 in Win98SE, I assumed it would be the same as for 6.2. You could try doing a folder search for Cache and see what turns up. Or maybe someone can tell you directly where it is located. |

| 127695 | 2003-03-13 08:06:00 | I forgot to say that you delete the Netscape cache files (similar to the Microsoft "Temporary Internet Files") from Edit-Preferences-Advanced-Cache as you have already found out :) Strange, when I had Netscape 4.7 I'm almost but not quite certain there was also the option to change the default location for the Cache folder, which I think from memory was in Program files\Netscape\User\... or somewhere, but of course it will be different in XP.

| 127696 | 2003-03-13 08:12:00 | It should be there, under Clear Disk Cache you should have Choose Folder To the left of this it will show where your Cache Files are located Cache files are stored in a subfolder of this directory. |
