Webmaster Forum / Browsers / Internet Explorer / November 2004Error Message Driving Me Insane
Every time i download something in IE6, it defaults to the temporary folder, this i have no problem with, however when the download completes windows tries to open it and there is no trace of the file anywhere. it says "Cannot open 'C:\.....\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\FJKXFZ8\<filename>'" i have tried going to the folder content IE5 however it appears non-existant. i figured this may be my problem, but i cannot create a folder inside the Temporary Internet Folder, so i am stuck with what to do. Any help will be much appreciated, i have also tried searching through the registry to change the download directory, but i cannot find anything. I am running Internet Explorer 6, Windows XP SP2, Broadband (incase that helps) and Zonealarm. thanx Nathan > Every time i download something in IE6, it defaults to the temporary > folder, this i have no problem with, however when the download [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > thanx > Nathan Can you not change the download location, say, to your desktop? > Can you not change the download location, say, to your desktop? no becuase it automatically starts downloading, i dont know how to change the default directory though????? >> Can you not change the download location, say, to your desktop? > > no becuase it automatically starts downloading, i dont know how to > change the default directory though????? Which IE version are you using? LEt me get this right. You wanna have the option to save the file to a location of your choice and not let IE auto download it into the internet temp. folder...... What I do is create a new folder on the C: drive called "Downloads". When downloading a file, use the browse button to go to this folder. IE should then remember to go here each time. If you put all downloads here - it also makes it easy to scan everything at once with your antivirus. Just rightclick and scan.
