Photos stored in cache?

[Guest thecubemonkey@gmail.com]

Hi all,

 

I'm curious, if I'm just viewing images from a CD (not stored on my C

Drive), are those photos cached somewhere on my hard drive?

 

I'm just viewing them using Windows Explorer 'Preview' option or even

the image viewer.

 

Thanks

Re: Photos stored in cache?

 

No. Thumbnails, or previews, whatever, are stored in the same folder as the

images they belong to. In the case of a CD, those things can't be stored on

the CD, so they aren't created. But the names of the files may be stored in

various MRU locations. Also, if the images are part of a web page, then the

images may well get cached in the TIF system.
