I have recently purchased a new computer with Vista and now when I try to save a census image it tells me it has been saved in the Temporary Internet Files Folder but when I do I can't find it afterwards even when I do a search. The only way I can get around this is when it asks if I want to open the file I say yes then have to click on a few files to locate it and then drag and drop it to where I want it. It is rather a pain as you can imagine so what do I have to do please so it will save in the correct folder with the usual one click? Thanks Peter

Hi Peter, >From what source are you saving the census image? Instructions on where you can find the the Temporary Internet Files Folder are here... http://www.winvistaclub.com/f11.html Where is the Temporary Internet Files folder located? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Windows Vista, the 'Temporary Internet Files' folder is located at: C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files Assuming that your Vista is installed on the C drive. To see it, not only do you have to check 'show hidden files & folders' option in the Folder Options, but also uncheck 'Hide protected operating system files/folders' option. But wait a sec, where is the index.dat file ? To access it, you will have to type in Explorers address bar the following location and click go: C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5 Only then will you be able to see the index.dat file. Conclusion ? The Content.IE5 folder is 'super' hidden! Regards, Kevin.
