DESPERATE need to clear the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer Cache

June 12, 2008

Hello All,

Right to the issue at hand. I have a user who did a search on her hard

disk for pictures. She found over 9,500+ photos. Now when she

double-click on an image and views it in WP&FV that fine, but to now go

and print the image, she is seeing ALL those photos as for some reason,

they are all showing up in the Print Selection window. Now I have

cleared her Temp folder, Internet Temp folder, and all the other

temporary storage I could find. I've searched the hard disk again to see

if I will be able to find where the files are located. I've load

internet explorer and deleted ALL files.

But when I go back into WP&FV and go to print, the images are still

there. Can someone PLEASE tell me how to remove these files from the

print selection window.

I would appreciate if when replying to this post, you would also send an

e-mail to my address, its kirrinjones--at--gmail--dot--com

THANKS.

I finally found them. HIDDEN OLK## directory. I wish Microsoft would fix

this problem. Why can't Outlook use the same %temp% variable like all

other programs.

Re: DESPERATE need to clear the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer Cache

This works in IE6.

Windows Picture and Fax Viewer lists every picture from the visited web sites?:

Will update the article for IE7.
