spinjector Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I'd like to move my Temp-folders to a different drive.Is there any reason I shouldn't/couldn't point all of these to "D:\Temp"...?TMP=C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\TempTEMP=C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\TempHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Environment\TMPHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Environment\TEMPIs there a risk of file name conflicts?

cluberti Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 In general, no, but be careful if "interesting" behavior occurs installing a random update or software package. There have been, for example, Windows updates in the past that fail if %TEMP% doesn't resolve to a specific (the default) location. It's been awhile, but it does happen. Assuming you're willing to troubleshoot that if it does (and temporarily "fix" it if that is the problem), you should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
