Full Version: How to point CC to temp dir?

My temp dir and windows temp dir are not in their default locations. CC cleaner does not analyse or clean them probably because it does not know the location. How can I make CC point to the right locations.

My 'Temp' and 'Temporary Internet Files' folders are not located in the Windows default directories as well
(i like to keep them in a separate drive D: ), but CCleaner detect and clean both with no problems.
AFAIK CCleaner should read the locations as set in the System Environment Variables.
(right click My Computer > Properties > Advanced > Environment Variables)

Typing '%temp%' or '%tmp%' (without quotes) in the Start > Run dialog does open your temp folders?


Note: I'm running XP SP3 though, no idea about Vista.

Include them in the Options/Include list. This option will delete everything in the named folders, so be sure that this is what you want.
