You can get the same thing in Internet Options, General tab, Temporary
Internet Files section, Settings button, View Files.

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".

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.

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

Yep, finally I created a bunch of partitions & moved stuff to them from
C:, including TIFs, the OE Store, My Documents, My Downloads, & the
Windows cab files. This Compaq 7470 came with just one hard drive, but
even that had a Dartition with a full system QuickRestore backup on
it. Now, I've got 2 hard drives & 7 partitions. I've moved my full
system backup to the 2nd hard drive because the HD crash I suffered in
'01 took out both C: & D:!

ANGELS~1 WAV 540,498 09-04-08 9:36p AngelsInWaiting[1].wav

That site puts several of them into TIFs scattered in the randomly named
folders inside Content.IE5. Try the largest one: just click it in the
TIF listing. If it fails to play all the way through, delete all of them
in TIFs, & try the site again, maybe, until finally it has worked. Then,
get it out of TIFs & into your music store (My Documents\My Music).
Then, use "WMP, Tools menu, Search for Media Files" to scan My Music
Folder. After that, it will be in the All Music dropdown choice on WMP's
right pane. That one will never give the error!

I see they have told you how to access TIFs in XP. Using the Internet
Options, Settings, View Files, method in Win98-- I can't see .wav or
..mp3 files! I seem to have to view them using Explorer. If you need to
do that too, someone around here may be able to say how using filters or
something in the XP Find box.
