Temp directory beign too Temp

[Dean]

Hi.
As you know when u download a setup program and run it.. it extracts files to the Temp Directory
[C:\documents and settings\dean\local settings\Temp]
Now MY system is deleting these files ...i dont have a chance to even copy them to another directory.

OS: XP

Any ideas?

I think it's because as the name says, everything is temporary so it gets removed as soon as it's there.

No that is the default place to extract with self-extractors and the problem is because one of two things

Your temp directory is full and has no room...or you need to adjust the max size of your temp directory to accomadate larger files. I believe that is under control panel system settings.
