When we use the computer, we will generate a lot of temporary files. These temporary files will not disappear by ourselves. It will only accumulate in the hard disk. In the end, you will find that your system disk is less and less, and these systems are less and less. Temporary files will record your online records, etc. So how do we deal with these temporary files? Where should I go to clean up? The following small series will answer this question for you. When you browse the web, edit the file, or chat on qq, you will generate a lot of temporary files without knowing it. These files follow you like a shadow, recording your whereabouts, but you are still in the bones. I know that until one day the computer appears "dredable disk space", you may ask, did not install or copy files in the c drive, how space is less and less, and even suggest that the disk space is insufficient. What is the reason for this? It turned out to be a temporary file. Temporary files are usually generated when Windows or applications are running. Although some temporary files are automatically deleted when Windows or applications exit normally, they are often temporarily unavailable due to Windows instability or imperfect program functions. The file becomes <; the fish of the net & rdquo;. In this way, as time goes by, the temporary files gradually accumulate, occupying the system disk, so that there is a situation of competing with the system files, and a large amount of debris is generated in the C disk, which affects the running speed of the system. The temporary files contain the records we use on our computer, and accidentally may expose privacy. So you need to clean up in time. Windows puts the temporary files generated by the machine into the temporary folder. The files in the temporary folder not only take up system resources, but also the virus is everywhere. The contents of the temporary folder can be deleted. We can get a size. Eat, in the start menu of the run window, enter %temp%, then click OK, you can see a lot of temporary files in the open window, press Ctra+A, select all files, then delete all, some are using The file cannot be deleted, and it will be deleted after restarting. So can you put it out before the temporary file is not produced, so that the virus does not live, does it not live? The answer is yes, let's first analyze the directory in which the temporary folders are located. There are three temporary folders in the Windows XP system disk: 1. Path to the system temporary folder system temporary folder: C:\\Windows\\Temp This folder is where the Windows system dumps temporary files. Generally, users are mostly system service type software (for example, Exchange Server). Therefore, the files in this folder are very few. 2. User account temporary folder computer user account temporary folder: C:\\Documents and Settings\\username (usually Administrator)\\Local Settings\\Temp directory (default is hidden directory) Windows 9x default path C:\\Windows\\Temp, Windows 2000\\XP\\2003 default path C:\\Documents and Settings\\current username\\Local Settings\\temp\\. This folder is where the user application's software (eg, winword) dumps temporary files for temporary calls and writes. 3.IE temporary folder IE temporary folder: C:\\Documents and Settings\\username\\Local Settings\\Temporary Internet Files (default is hidden directory) You can also view through this operation: Open IE---Tools--- Internet option --- regular --- settings. The IE temp folder contains the contents of the webpage we have recently viewed. Ok, knowing the directory where the temporary folder is located, we can control it, choose my computer → control panel → management tool → local security policy → software restriction strategy → other rules, the right area will Display the content of the rule (there are a few rules inside, you can't move it, otherwise it may cause the system to crash). Right click New “New Path Rule", in the path text box of the "New Path Rule" dialog box, enter C:\\Documents and Settings\\*\\Local Settings\\, and the security level is set to “Allowed" ; then click “OK”. Use the same method. Create a new “new path rule", enter C:\\Windows\\Temp, set the security level to “not allowed", and click “OK”. This temporary file will be greatly reduced, and the corresponding virus will be shut out. It seems that as long as we deal with it properly, we can minimize the negative impact of temporary files, and use the computer more easily.
