Hello everyone, Lin Fei to answer the above questions, how to set up win7 temporary files, win7 temporary documents many people do not know, now let's take a look!

How do I modify the temporary file path of the system?

After a period of time, temporary files generated by the computer (which can be quite large if not cleaned for a long time) may take up a lot of hard disk space, accumulate hard disk fragments, and degrade system performance. It is safe to delete these files. However, Windows does not allow you to delete anything that is in use by any open program.

Next, let's take a look at the Windows7 system temporary file path modification tutorial.

1. Open the "my computer\ computer" property menu on the win7 desktop (if the desktop does not have a start menu-computer-property settings).

two。 Click Advanced system Settings (that is, system and Security-system options in the Control Panel menu) in the operating system properties.

3. Go to the system Properties tab of the operating system-click the "Environment variables" function of the advanced options.

4. Go to the environment variable and locate the "TEMP,TMP" setting, then click Edit.

5. Set TMP to D:\ Tmp to make it easier to clean up files later and put temporary folders in a place where there is a lot of disk space.

Restore the default storage settings:

If you want to restore the default settings, you can set tmp and TEMP to% user profile%\ appdata\ local\ TEMP, that is, under the system disk appdata\ local. The file is a hidden system file. All hidden files, including system-protected files, need to be opened in order to display properly.

Matters needing attention

TMP is an acronym for temporary, that is, "temporary" and "temp" are also directories that the system uses to temporarily generate unzipped files for programs and system runs. Of course, some video players or large games have temporary folder settings. It is recommended that you can also set custom settings and modify them to specific garbage areas for easy management.

At the end of this article, I hope it will be helpful to you.
