Hallo George I read this a bit late having experimented with C cleaner
Disk clean up and Regscrub, I then tried to send to list but had lost all
connections on both, after many hours got a connection back, that Win
Patrol spotted something unfamiliar trying to enter computer, and barked.
Anyway in the latest version of computer active from TNauk which I still get
on audio tape is a very interesting article on temporary files and it
covers both Xp and Vista. Dorothy

Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: Temporary Files
Just to expand a little on what Brian quite correctly says here, there
are unfortunately situations when temporary files may not be deleted.
I'll list a few.
1) Your system packs up for some reason while you are running an
application.
2) When you install new software, some poorly written installation
programs fail to remove temporary files they create and use during
installation.
3) Windows conventions are such that temporary files should carry the
expension ".tmp", and yet the programmers have used a different
extension for whatever reason. Then they forget they have done this,
and equally so, forget to remove them.
4) And proably a dozen or more other reasons.
As a general rule, if you have no programs running, anything in a
folder called "temp" can invariably be deleted. If you try to empty a
"temp" folder, and it contains files that are in use, Windows will
tell you.
George.

Dear Dorothy and List:
A temporary file is a file that is needed for a while to do something,
but is not required to be around permanently. An example of a
temporary file is one of the work files required by a program while it
is running, but may be deleted upon the completion of the program.
Hope this explains temporary files.
Brian
