Delete Temp Internet Files?

Question

I have an old laptop from work and I cannot find the temp internet files to delete them.

I've tried right clicking on the start bar and choosing explore and going that route but they're not there. When I try to delete them via IE it doesn't ever go through...

Answer 1

Open tools, on the top right hand side of your IE, and open tools, open Internet Options, and you will see delete temp. files, history, etc. etc.

Or you can download what I use 100% free and clean, Crap Cleaner. Will do the job for you. http://www.ccleaner.com

Or you can also go to start, my computer, or open my computer from your desk top, open local disk "C", open properties and clean disk. Will clean for you.

Answer 2

Start, All programs, Accessories, System Tools, Disk clean up

Click each one and then when the disk clean up dialogue box will show it will ask you which files you want to delete out of a choice of them. Mark the files that you want to delete example: temporary internet files, and then Ok.

Answer 3

On Internet Explorer, menu Tools, Internet Options.

There you have the option to delete your temp files.

Answer 5

It deletes rubbish documents. What occurs once you delete cookies is that all and sundry the web pages which you have have been given visited are deleted from the handle bar, and once you delete Tepm documents it potential that web pages load slower until you pass to that internet site back.

Answer 6

By default this files are hidden by the system.
Here's how:
1. go to Control Panel > Folder Options
2. go to View tab and click/mark on "Show hidden files and folders".
3. then go to Seach and look for files and folders containing "temporary internet files" then delete.

Answer 8

You might need to give it more time through IE. It can take a very long times sometimes. It can also be very quick sometimes, so quick that you may think that it didn't do anything. It just depends on how long you between each time you do it.
