1. Re: AppData/Local/Temp Question
joe bloe premiere Mar 31, 2011 1:51 PM (in response to racer_300m)Just close all Adobe apps, and delete 'em all.
You will probably get a prompt for a system file that can't be deleted,
but everything else can just go away without consequence.
Edit:
I just did it and the only file that could not be deleted was:
FXSAPIDebugLogFile.txt

joe bloe premiere Sep 3, 2011 2:27 PM (in response to hpmoon)Of course, you could equip your system with an adequately sized
system drive so this would be a non-issue (as it is for most).Are you confident that there is no existing way to accomplish this otherwise?
Yes.

Yes.
Sorry, but I doubt that. And no, I won't be spending any time changing my system drive on account of this minor issue.

And in case you misinterpreted me, I am saying that Adobe could resolve the issue rather than my ignoring it. Or perhaps there is a solution somewhere, but you don't know it (despite the stated confidence).

If you find that you can assign a different location for these files,
you should report back here with that information.

10. Re: AppData/Local/Temp Question
Jeff Bellune Sep 3, 2011 2:40 PM (in response to hpmoon)The Temp folder in Windows 7 is set by an environment variable. You can change the location of the Win7 Temp folder by changing the environment variable.
This page:
How to change environment variables in Windows 7 | Windows 7 Themes
has pretty clear instructions.The key for a small SSD system drive would be to move the Temp folders to another, larger drive. Then all the Adobe stuff, as well as all the temp stuff from all your other applications, would be sent to the new, roomier location.
