Jar_cache files left in temp folder

With my java applet, I notice that my Temp folder fills up with lots of jar_cachexxx files, where xxx is numeric.
Running on Windows Vista.
Most of these files have a size of 0.
The files never seem to be deleted.
I've searched the forums, but this does not seem to be a current issue.
One closed 'not a bug', suggested that the behaviour was correct if I load the applet as an <object > in the html, rather than as an <applet >. I've changed my html, but makes no difference.
I'm a little concerned that users of my app will be filling up there hard drives with empty useless files.
Does anyone else get lots of these building up in their Temp folder? Is there a solution to this?

Did you find a resolution for this? I have a server that is doing the same thing and would like to get it cleaned up.
Thanks!
Jeff

Large files created in TEMP folder

Hello,
one of our servers reported low disk space and we discovered, that its caused by huge files created in temp folder.
These file names are like C:\Windows\Temp\TMP00000A78405B314E573DA1A0
Process monitor reported, that theyre created by FEP (msmpeng.exe), from 1MB to 1.7GB size ..
Is it normal behavior?

ITunes music files in my Temp folder

So I have a full list of my music in c:\temp (cannot figure out how they got there) and the ones in My Documents\My Music\iTunes...
Where would I see where iTunes actually sees the files so I can delete the set in c:\temp. And if it is using the c:\temp how do I move them all back to the proper folder. Last time I did something like this the iPod on a sync became a total mess!

+"Where would I see where iTunes actually sees the files"+
Find the song in the iTunes library, right-click, "Show in Windows Explorer." That will show you the copy that iTunes is using. Any other copy is not needed.

Temp files in user temp folder

I have an issue that recently popped up. Adobe Livecycle 7.0 creates a temporary pdf file under C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local settings\Temp everytime a pdf is previewed by the user. The files keeps building and never get deleted. Interestingly, the problem started happening only about a month ago. So it appears that it was getitng purged by Adobe earlier.
Does anyone know what could be wrong and if there is anything that needs to be changed to make the automatic purging to continue to happen ?
Any guidance is very much appreciated.
Thanks !

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page).
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
Here's a screenshot showing the particular links on the page that you should be clicking:
After clicking one of the circled links, you should be taken to another page, and after a few seconds you should see a download dialog appear for the msicuu2.exe file. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like for me in Firefox:
Choose to Save the file. If the dialog box does not appear for you, click the link on the page that says "CLICK HERE IF IT DOES NOT". Here's a screenshot of the page with the relevant link circled:
When the dialog appears, choose to save the file.
(2) Go to the Downloads area for your Web browser. Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

File tranfer avoiding temp folde

Is there a way to tranfer files (nomad explorer) from the zen touch to the pc hdd avoiding the temp foler?
Asking because although my windows partiotion is almost full i have like a lot of gigs of free space elsewhere and cant tranfer the files i want.
Thnx happy holidayz

Well I just changed the path to my massi've storage partition. Moving isnt a problem anymore.
If anyone wants to do it he just has to change the Temp dir of his profile (f.e. C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Local Settings\Temp) to wherever he wants (f.e. E:\Tempmod).
The path is specified in the System Properties->Environment Variables.

Duplicates in temp folder

I've recently upgraded to PS Elements V7. I've noticed that when I modify the date/time of a picture, it is leaving a duplicate copy of the picture in my temp folder (path is C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\temp). The only difference between this picture file and the original in my "my pictures" folder, is the date of the file/picture.
There is also an empty "Adobe" and empty "editor" sub-folder in this temp folder.
I've noticed that this duplicate file appears only when I modify the date/time of a picture, not if I do a full edit of the picture and save it (then it just overwrites the original picture in the "my pictures" folder.
I've tried closing PS Elements and rebooting the computer, but the files in the temp folder are still there. I deleted all of these pictures and through Elements modified a picture, checked that it had duplicated in temp (it had), closed element, rebooted...still there.
As I've never noticed this before (I usually clear out the temp folder about 1x a week and have been an elements user for years), I'm wondering what is causing it? If it is normal? Is there a way to disable it?
As this temp folder is somewhat hidden (most/many computer users probably don't know how to access it), the fact that it is retaining full duplicate copies of modified pictures that must be manually deleted means that many users hard drives may be filling up unnecessarily with these files.
I've checked in elements and noted that it points to the original picture in the "my pictures" folder and not to the temp folder duplicate. Deleting the temp folder pictures does not seem to affect elements. I've also tried the folder view option in elements to see if it was "recognizing" these duplicates in temp, but the temp folder does not even come up as accessible.
Thanks for any help, insight...Mike Villella

John, thanks for the reply. I wonder if anyone else is missing a lot of disk space due to files in a temp folder that don't know about. I would think that closing the program and/or rebooting would flush this folder, but apparently not.
I use Norton Protected Recycle bin. Never noticed a similar problem before. I just did an "unerase" function with the recycle bin and there were a lot of old files that are associated with elements, just not any actual pix.
I do keep finished photos on a NAS drive, but the photos in question are on the hard drive (C drive).
I did the process again paying more attention. Started by deleting everything in the temp folder and rebooting.
The file had a date taken of 12/5/99 a created date of 1/3/09 and a modified date of 1/24/09 and was in "My pictures". Upon adjusting the time/date to 12/15/99, a new file popped up in the temp folder, same name, size, rez, etc. The temp file has a date taken of 12/5/99, a created date of 1/25/09 and a modified date of 1/24/09, same as the old file except the new created date of today.
The picture in "my pictures" is also same size, name and rez. The date taken has the new date of 12/15/99, and a modified and created date of 1/25/09 (today).
So apparently, upon adjusting the time/date, the original file is being duplicated and created in temp, while the original file is being updated with the new date entered and today's date as created and modified.
The duplicated file in temp is basically orphaned. Elements does not appear to link to it or see it. When I delete it manually, it does not affect Elements.
So, I guess I can understand why a temp file is created during the process (but, by the same token, not sure why the same thing doesn't happen during a full edit), but I'm not sure why it is left in temp and not automatically deleted at some point. Does that make sense or am I missing something?
Also, I notice a amt, alm, libFNP_events, and swtag file being created in this temp folder (C:\documents and settings\username\local settings\temp). They don't seem to ever auto delete either.

Firefox 15.1 storing Downloads in Temp folder despite being set to save into Downloads?

OK so I'm running Windows 7 64 Bit and Mozilla Firefox 15.1
Downloads is set to save to "Downloads" but, they are in fact saving to a firefox temp folder?
checked the about:config and browser.download = C:\...\Downloads
I read an answer on here that said "Disable Real Time AV Scanning??? are you serious? all those hackers out there and you want me to turn off my AV?
Please can you provide a suitable answer to this query.

If the anti-virus software is scanning the file while it is still in the temp folder and keeps an handle on it then Firefox won't be able to move the file from the temp folder to the destination folder.<br />
Your AV software should still scan the file if you try to start it or open the file in another application if real-time scanning is disabled.<br />
You can also try to exclude the temp folder, so the scanning will be done once Firefox moves the file to the destination folder and not during the download phase.

Downloads going to The "Temp" Folder

Hi! I've had this problem for a while now and now i want to fix it. I see other people have this problem too. When i download a file and open it dircetl, its saves in the Temp folder on my C drive(witch is an SSD) I don't want it there and i have not asked them to go there, I want it on my 2nd harddrive, Witch is where i got it set up to go. Is there any way to get files you open directly to go to the folder that you set? or is this impossible?
Troubleshooting Information Included.

Firefox immediately starts downloading the file in the background and saves the file to the temp folder and doesn't wait until you specify the name and the location (destination folder).
If the file stays in the temp folder then it is possible that your security software is blocking the file and prevents Firefox from moving the file to the specified destination folder.
You would have to change the TMP and TEMP environment variables to point to a location (X:\\temp) on that other drive.

Temp folder stopping me from replying to messages

I am unable to reply to emails. I have version 24.6.0. When I click Send, error message says "Unable to open the temporary file C:\Users\Robert\AppData\Local\Temp\nsemail.eml. Check your 'Temporary Directory' setting."
I tried to delete this and two other nsemail files in this Temp folder hoping to have T'bird rebuild the folder but am unable to. They're locked. How to fix?

Multiple plugtmp-1 plugtmp-2 etc. in local\temp folder stay , crossdomain.xml and other files containing visited websitenames created while private browsing

OS = Windows 7
When I visit a site like youtube whith private browsing enabled and with the add-on named "shockwave flash" in firefox add-on list installed and activate the flashplayer by going to a video the following files are created in the folder C:\Users\MyUserName\AppData\Local\Temp\plugtmp-1
plugin-crossdomain.xml
plugin-strings-nl_NL-vflLqJ7vu.xlb
The contents of plugin-crossdomain contain both the "youtube.com" adress as "s.ytimg.com" and is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
-<cross-domain-policy> <allow-access-from domain="s.ytimg.com"/> <allow-access-from domain="*.youtube.com"/> </cross-domain-policy>
The contents of the other file I will spare you cause I think those are less common when I visit other sites but I certainly don't trust the file. The crossdomain.xml I see when I visit most other flashpayer sites as well.
I've also noticed multiple plugin-crossdomain-1.xml and onwards in numbers, I just clicked a youtube video to test, got 6 of them in my temp plus a file named "plugin-read2" (no more NL file cause I changed my country, don't know how youtube knows where I'm from, but that's another subject, don't like that either). I just noticed one with a different code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
-<cross-domain-policy> <allow-access-from domain="*"/> </cross-domain-policy>
So I guess this one comprimises my browsing history a bit less since it doesn't contain a webadress. If these files are even meant to be deposited in my local\temp folder. The bigger problem occurs when they stay there even after using private browsing, after clearing history, after clearing internet temporary files, cache, whatever you can think of. Which they do in my case, got more than 50 plugtmp-# folders in the previous mentioned local\temp folder containing all website names I visited in the last months. There are a variety of files in them, mostly ASP and XML, some just say file. I have yet to witness such a duplicate folder creation since I started checking my temp (perhaps when firefox crashes? I'd say I've had about 50 crashes in recent months).
I started checking my temp because of the following Microsoft Security Essential warnings I received on 23-4-12:
Exploit:Java/CVE-2010-0840.HE
containerfile:C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp\jar_cache2196625541034777730.tmp
file:C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp\jar_cache2196625541034777730.tmp->pong/reversi.class
and...
Exploit:Java/CVE-2008-5353.ZT
containerfile:C:\Users\Noname\AppData\Local\Temp\jar_cache1028270176376464057.tmp
file:C:\Users\Noname\AppData\Local\Temp\jar_cache1028270176376464057.tmp->Testability.class
Microsoft Security Essentials informed me that these files were quarantained and deleted but when going to my temp file they were still there, I deleted them manually and began the great quest of finding out what the multiple gigabytes of other files and folders were doing in that temp folder and not being deleted with the usual clearing options within firefox (and IE).
Note that I have set my adobe flasplayer settings to the most private intense I could think of while doing these tests (don't allow data storage for all websites, disable peer-to peer stuff, don't remember exactly anymore, etc.). I found it highly suspicious that i needed to change these settings online on an adobe website, is that correct? When right-clicking a video only limited privacy options are available which is why I tried the website thing.
After the inital discovery of the java exploit (which was discovered by MSE shortly after I installed and started my first scan with Malwarebytes, which in turn made me suspicious whether I had even downloaded the right malwarebytes, but no indication in the filename if I google it). Malwarebytes found nothing, MSE found nothing after it said it removed the files, yet it didn't remove them, manually scanning these jar_cache files with both malwarevytes and MSE resulted in nothing. Just to be sure, I deleted them anyways like I said earlier. No new jar_cache files have been created, no exploits detected since then. CCleaner has cleaned most of my temp folder, I did the rest, am blocking all cookies (except for now shortly), noscript add-on has been running a while on my firefox (V 3.6.26) to block most javascripts except from sites like youtube. I've had almost the same problem using similar manual solutions a couple of months ago, and a couple of months before that (clearing all the multiple tmp folders, removing or renaming jar_cache manually, running various antmalware software, full scan not finding a thing afterwards, installing extra add-ons to increase my security, this time it's BetterPrivacy which I found through a mozilla firefox https connection, I hope, which showed me nicely how adobe flash was still storing LSO's even after setting all storage settings to 0 kb and such on the adobe website, enabling private browsing in firefox crushed those little trolls, but still plugtmp trolls are being created, help me crush them please, they confuse me when I'm looking for a real threat but I still want to use flash, IE doesn't need those folders and files, or does it store them somewhere else?).
I'm sorry for the long story and many questions, hope it doesn't scare you away from helping me fight this. I suspect it's people wanting to belong to the hackergroup Anonymous who are doing this to my system and repeating their tricks (or the virus is still there, but I've done many antivirus scans with different programs so no need to suggest that option to me, they don't find it or I run into it after a while again, so far, have not seen jar_cache show up). Obviously, you may focus on the questions pertaining firefox and plugtmp folders, but if you can help me with any information regarding those exploits I would be extremely grateful, I've read alot but there isn't much specific information for checking where it comes from when all the anti-virus scanners don't detect anything anymore and don't block it incoming. I also have downloaded and installed process monitor but it crashes when I try to run it. The first time I tried to run it it lasted the longest, now it crashes after a few seconds, I just saw the number of events run up to almost a million and lots of cpu usage. When it crashed everything returned back to normal, or at least that's what I'm supposed to think I guess. I'll follow up on that one on their forum, but you can tell me if the program is ligit or not (it has a microsoft digital signature, or the name micosoft is used in that signature).

update:
I haven't upgraded my firefox yet because of a "TVU Web Player" plugin that isn't supported in the new firefox and I'm using it occasionally, couldn't find an upgrade for it. Most of my other plugins are upgraded in the green (according to mozilla websitechecker):
Java(TM) Platform SE 6 U31 (green)
Shockwave for Director (green - from Adobe I think)
Shockwave Flash (green - why do I even need 2 of these adobe add-ons? can I remove one? I removed everything else i could find except the reader i think, I found AdobeARM and Adobe Acrobat several versions, very confusing with names constantly switching around)
Java Deployment Toolkit 6.0.310.5 (green, grrr, again a second java, why do they do this stuff, to annoy people who are plagued with java and flash exploits? make it more complicating?)
Adobe Acrobat (green, great, it's still there, well I guess this is the reader then)
TVU Web Player for FireFox (grey - mentioned it already)
Silverlight Plug-In (yellow - hardly use it, I think, unless it's automatic without my knowing, perhaps I watched one stream with it once, I'd like to remove it, but just in case I need it, don't remember why I didn't update, perhaps a conflict, perhaps because I don't use it, or it didn't report a threat like java and doesn't create unwantend and history compromising temp files)
Google Update (grey - can I remove? what will i lose? don't remember installing it, and if I didn't, why didn't firefox block it?)
Veetle TV Core (grey)
Veetle TV Player (grey - using this for watching streams on veetle.com, probably needs the Core, deleted the broadcaster that was there earlier, never chose to install that, can't firefox regulate that when installing different components? or did i just miss that option and assumed I needed when I was installing veetle add-on?)
Well, that's the list i get when checking on your site, when i use my own browseroptions to check add-ons I get a slightly different and longer list including a few I have already turned off (which also doesn't seem very secure to me, what's the point in using your site then for anything other than updates?), here are the differences in MY list:
I can see 2 versions of Java(TM) Platform SE 6 U31, (thanks firefox for not being able to copy-paste this)
one "Classic Java plug-in for Netscape and Mozilla"
the other is "next generation plug-in for Mozilla browsers".
I think I'll just turn off the Netscape and Mozilla one, don't trust it, why would I need 2? There I did it, no crashes, screw java :P
There's also a Mozilla Default plugin listed there, why does firefox list it there without any further information whether I need it or not or whether it really originates from Mozilla firefox? It doesn't even show up when I use your website plugin checker, so is there no easy way by watching this list for me to determin I can skip worrying about it?
There's also some old ones that I recently deactivated still listed like windows live photo gallery, never remember adding that one either or needing it for anything and as usual, right-clicking and "visit homepage" is greyed out, just as it is for the many java crap add-ons I encountered so far.
Doing a quick check, the only homepage I can visit is the veetle one. The rest are greyed out. I also have several "Java Console" in my extentions tab, I deactivated all but the one with the highest number. Still no Java Console visible though, even after going to start/search "java", clicking java file and changing the settings there to "show" console instead of "hide" (can't remember exact details).
There's some other extentions from noscript, TVU webplayer again, ADblock Plus and now also BetterPrivacy (sidenote, a default.LSO remains after cleanup correct? How do I know that one isn't doing anything nasty if it's code has been changed or is being changed? To prevent other LSO's I need to use both private browsing and change all kinds of restrictions online for adobe flashplayer, can anyone say absurd!!! if you think you're infected and want to improve your security? Sorry that rant was against Adobe, but it's really against Anonymous, no offense).

Function module to get the file path in the system for TEMP folder

Hi All,
Is there any function module that I can use to get the file path in the system for TEMP folder.
I mean, i am supposed to give only TEMP as the input for that function module and I need to get the path of that in the system as the output.
I am unsing 4.0 version.
Please advice.
Regards
Ramesh

In Higher versions, we can use the below code:
call method CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>ENVIRONMENT_GET_VARIABLE
    exporting
      VARIABLE   = 'TEMP'
    importing
      VALUE      = LV_TMP
    exceptions
      CNTL_ERROR = 1
      others     = 2.
if SY-SUBRC <> 0.
    message id SY-MSGID type SY-MSGTY number SY-MSGNO
    with SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
endif.
call method CL_GUI_CFW=>FLUSH
    exceptions
      CNTL_SYSTEM_ERROR = 1
      CNTL_ERROR        = 2
      others            = 3.
if SY-SUBRC <> 0.
Error handling
endif.
concatenate lv_tmp '\' into folder_path.
But need to know in the lower versions like 3.1h and 4.0,
