Windows Disk Cleanup Temporary Internet Files for FireFox?

Hi guys. When I run Windows Disk Cleanup there is an option to delete 234MB of Temporary Internet Files. I don't use IE so are these FireFox temp files?

Plugins from MS like Windows Media Player and Silverlight use the IE Temporary Internet Files and Cookies folder, so you may be seeing files from those plugins. You can check those folder to see which files are in there to verify this.

  • Period of keeping temporary internet files?

    How can i set period of keeping temporary internet files for example as day or month. i would like to keep them for long time to make it faster and prevent using my internet quota much.(ex. more than a month).
    Could you help me ?

    Firefox lets you set the size of the cache (equivalent of the Temporary Internet Files folder) on disk here:
    Tools > Options > Advanced > Network tab
    However, I don't know whether you can set a period of time for the cache. Maybe someone else knows where that would be.

  • How do I manually delete temporary internet files, and if I delete them on IE are they also deleted onFirefox?

    I know how to delete cookies on firefox but have not figured out how to delete temporary internet files. I can do it on IE, does that do the job or do I have to delete TIF's on firefox also?

    The equivalent of temporary internet files on Firefox is the cache. For details of how to clear it see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+clear+the+cache
    Clearing TIFs in IE will not clear the cache in Firefox.

  • GPO Disk space to use (8-1024 MB) for Temporary Internet Files and History Settings

    I am trying to create a GPO that will allow me to specify 1024 (MB) for Disk space to use to go to IE, the General Tab, Settings,
    In the box below there is a box fo Disk space to use.  There is a GPO for this under...

    Hi,
    Sorry for the late response.
    Before going further, what’s the operating systems of our server and client?
    As far as I know, we have to use customized .adm or .admx file to reset the maximum size of IE cache size.
    If our server is Window Server 2003 and client is Windows XP, we can refer to the following thread for the customized .adm file.

  • After downloading PSE 13, receive error message cannot open windows temporary internet files

    After downloading Photoshop elements 13, I receive an error message as it tries to open (but instead opens my PSE 9 application) and this message appears:  "cannot open C:Users\Spears\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.1E5\AV8ZNMD1\Photoshop Elements_13_LS25_win64.7z"
    I have been trying various fixes to download this for 2 days now.  Can someone please help me?
    Thanks!

    Did you check if the Firefox file is in that location?
    If it isn't there then do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
    If the file is there then do a malware check with some malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.<br />

  • Inn Firefox 11, how do I clear temporary internet files, but keep history?

    In Firefox 11, how do I clear temporary internet files, but keep history?
    You can email me the answer at (Email removed by mod)
    Thank you!

    I'll go ahead and explain it since you said the link wasn't working for you:
    1. Open up Firefox. In the upper left hand corner, click the orange Firefox button.
    2. Inside the menu that drops down, click on Options, then go to the "Advanced" tab in the upper right hand corner of that smaller window.
    3. Inside that window, you should see some smaller tabs, one will be "General" another "network" etc. Click Network.
    4. Inside the Network tab, under "Cached Page Content" click the "Clear Now" button. That will remove the cache (which is the same as temporary internet files in Internet Explorer).
    Let me know if that helps you out.

  • What is the default name of the folder where the cache (i.e. Firefox's temporary internet files) is stored?

    What is the default name of the folder where the cache (i.e. Firefox's temporary internet files) is stored? Basically, what folder is Firefox's equivalent of Temporary Internet Files?

    You can find the location of the cache on the about:cache page (open that page via the location bar like a website).
    Only large image and media files are stored as individual files on disk.<br />
    Other files are stored in a few large container files (_CACHE_XXX_) in the cache folder and not as separate files on disk.<br />
    The individual files on disk have random names without a file extension for security reasons: you can't open an application or start a downloaded virus inadvertently by clicking a file in the cache folder.<br />
    You can look at this extension for easier access to files in the cache.

  • Location/directory used by JRE, for saving the temporary Internet files

    Hello sir,
    I am working on a project( in JavaFX ) which takes the URL of a streaming FLV video( eg: http://sun.edgeboss.net/download/sun/media/1460825906/1460825906_11810873001_09c01923-00.flv ) as input and plays it in Media Player component.
    I have successfully played the streaming video, by taking the aid of sample project, Media Box( http://javafx.com/samples/MediaBox/ ).
    Now I am interested in knowing the location/directory, where these temporary Internet files will be downloaded to. Please let me know, the location/directory used by JRE( on both Windows and Linux ) for saving the temporary Internet files. Also let me know, if there is any possibility of changing that location/directory.
    Thanks for any help, in advance.

    You should avoid posting the same message multiple times...
    By definition, streaming is supposed to play the received movie data on the fly, without intermediary file. Now, it depends on implementation, if that's real streaming, etc., so in practice there might be a temp file, or not.
    But this temp location will be, obviously, highly dependent on the current system (even between WinXP and Win7, for example). You can find the answer experimentally, eg. on Windows by using Sysinternals' Process Monitor application (did that to find out where Storage files go), but it is brittle.
    I doubt there is (an official) way to know that from within the JavaFX application...

  • Does Firefox save the temporary internet files as form of JPG or AVI?

    Hi
    I really feel satisfaction about Firefox.
    And I have a question that whether it remain or not temporary internet files as form of JPG, AVI etc.
    I know that Firefox remains 'cache' when I surfing the internet with it.
    You know, internet explorer remains temporary internet files as JPG file or AVI, MP4...
    I'm just wondering that does Firefox remain 'caches' only.

    One way or another Firefox tries to save quite a bit of information in order to run smoothly and help you. What problem do you have that you are trying to solve ?
