win95\98 temp dir

[JeanneD]

where in win95\98 do you change the path for the temp dir? I need to change it from C:\windows\temp to d:\temp but I can't find where it is...looked in regedit, etc
thanx =)

one wy is to put the line :-

SET TEMP=D:\TEMP

in the AUTOEXEC.BAT FILE

I think I found it in the registry. Try messing with this key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\explorer\VolumeCaches\Temporary files

In this key, there is a value called "folder" which is set to "c:\windows\temp\".

Hi and Thanx Guys...
Actually I did end up putting it in the autoexec.bat the way Darren said cuz thats the only way I knew, but I thought there must be a way to do it in windows.........I will give steve's reg thingy a try for the heck of it too....
