Temp Files

Clint · 28 May 2017

I don't have a folder named C:\Users\Clint\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCach\IE
When I run Disk Cleanup or CCleaner,It says there are temporary internet files there. Why don't I see this folder?

Those folders are Super Hidden.

You'll need to uncheck the Hide protected operating system files box to see the INetCache folder.

Oops, I should've mentioned that!

Thanks @Brink!

De nada. I'm sure Clint knew what you meant though.

Thanks guys. That worked. Is it safe to delete those files manually? They seem to be just pics.

Safe, however, if you use IE, that directory will simply repopulate.

Run, %temp% and temp and then i delete them with Eraser.

Safe, but IE's' Internet Options - delete temporary internet files' will clear it, as will Disk Clean up or even your CCleaner.

The reason that I ask is, I have 2.55 GB left after I run IE delete, Disk Cleanup and CCleaner. I can't find those files. After that I have found this folder ( C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCach\IE) it is empty but still shoes 2.55 GB Temporary internet files and growing.. Where can they be?
