ran Posted November 6, 2004 Author Posted November 6, 2004 OK, sometimes I'm slow and I forget that google is my friend.I've found this so far:[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Cache\Paths\path1]"CachePath"="E:\\TEMP\\Cache1"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Cache\Paths\path2]"CachePath"="E:\\TEMP\\Cache2"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Cache\Paths\path3]"CachePath"="E:\\TEMP\\Cache3"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Cache\Paths\path4]"CachePath"="E:\\TEMP\\Cache4"[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]"Cache"="E:\\TEMP"[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders]"Cache"="E:\\TEMP"Changing these should allow me to move it to a temp directory outside the user profiles.However, I'd also like to change the cache size. any ideas?Ran
ran Posted November 6, 2004 Author Posted November 6, 2004 some more searching.....HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Internet Settings/Cache/...there's cache in binary - not sure what I could do with that..but there's also values in other locations such as default user and current user....I'm just a bit confused.......Which/how should I change? hmmmmmm
Tsunami Posted November 6, 2004 Posted November 6, 2004 Sets cache size to 50MB:[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\Cache\Content]"CacheLimit"=dword:0000c800[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Cache\Content]"CacheLimit"=dword:0000c800
