Temp Folder

rajkumar_personal · 01-03-2006, 12:29 PM

In the SIFY Cafes the C: drive is not visible to the users.
But I wanted to copy the files stored in the temp folder (videos, pics, flash files, that are stored while browsing) and also the Cache folder of IE and Firefox !

Is there a way to do it ?

If your way is illegal in nature, please PM me the solution or mail it to me at raj.neo@gmail.com but please don't break the forum rules and post illegal stuff here !

hav u tried making a shortcut on the desktop and putting the path as a folder on C: ? maybe that will work...

or try going to START>RUN or if that is not accessible also, then use the task manager (i hope atleast that is accessible)....and go to file>run

and type this in - %appdata%\

that will open the documents and settings folder and hopefully u will b able to browse to the folders wich u want

and then copy the content of temp by

xcopy command

What he said, basically.

I too had a similar situation once, but on enquiring with the cafe-manager, he said that that was Sify's policy.

I think they alter the software with the permission of MS.And make according to their need i suppose. :roll:

they do nothing except changing the explorer!

What I mean is they only replace the default explorer file of windows with their own customized file!

We can also do it on our comp but we'll need that customized file

Were we can get customized file ???Is there any idea?????

Vishal Gupta · 04-03-2006, 08:45 PM

I didnt find ne such customized Explorer file on net!

Actually these files r created by professionals on demand (costly too)...

Since I havent been to any of these cybercafes, I dont know exactly what is allowed in there... But do they allow you to use a Thumbdrive? If yes, you can take Portable Firefox and have it configured hopefully to download cache to the thumbdrive itself...

They allow but not to use in nodes only administrator can use it.And there is a FIREFOX in reliance webworld and they allow as download and save them do desktop and after that we can burn it by tranfering the data to admin.....

Changing explorer.exe is illegal. did u mean another shell? it may be possible. We can also use some registry changes to customize the options shown in desktop.

But there are third party softwares which do the same thing. One such s/w is reviewed / demonstrated in the February issue. hope u have seen that

rajkumar_personal · 06-03-2006, 06:04 PM

Aren't we getting off track ???

I just need a way to copy files from the temp folder without breaking any rules (well ......... At least the SIFY person should not know !)

kin.vachhani · 07-03-2006, 06:48 PM

hey man the good way is..... to open a notepad .... then press alt+f .. u will see desktop files... then from there try to access the c: drive just check it.......

sakumar79 · 07-03-2006, 08:26 PM

Some more thoughts (I repeat once more, I havent used these cafes so I am just shooting in the dark)...

1. This almost certainly wont work, but still - in IE, can you access the Internet Options? If yes, General Tab->Temporary Internet Files->Settings has feature to change Temp files folder. Then, you can create a folder on desktop and change it there... But I seriously doubt if they will have that feature enabled...

2. In Opera, there is a possibility of viewing cache through Tools->Advanced->Cache... I think Firefox has similar about:cache url to view cache contents... Can you get it from there?

3. Not sure but how exactly do you plan to get the files copied after you access them? Do the cafes provide CD burning facility? And can you get it done without administrator noting?
