Where are the temporary internet files of Microsoft Edge located?

Version 22H2 (OS Build 19045.3324) Hi everybody. The first question is, what is the difference between temporary internet files and cache? I know about cache for a long time, but I only got to know that there is temporary internet file for browsers. I have some questions regarding this that I'll list in points. 1. What are their difference? 2. Does Edge automatically clear temporary internet files, and how often does it do? 3. Where is the location of the temporary internet files? A few results on Google suggest that they are located under C:\Users\$user\AppData\Local\Packages \Microsoft. A few other results suggest C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Cache I may have more questions about this, but stop here for now. Thanks.

 

The Background theme (image) showing Black after changing the AppData/Roaming Location

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are facing issues while changing the wallpaper on your PC after changing the location of Appdata folder.



Ideally, it is not advised to change the location of the Appdata folder as it can corrupt the user account files and some of the features of the account might not work properly.



I appreciate your efforts in trying to resolve the issue by following certain troubleshooting steps. However, as the issue persists I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below and check if that helps.

Note: Important this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow

Changing the default storage designation for the Microsoft Windows Store and various apps.

Hi Isaac,

The default storage location for the Windows store and apps is in system location where Windows is stored (This PC-> C drive), if you want to change the default location of the apps then I suggest you to follow the below steps to change the settings
and check if it helps.

• Open Settings and click on the System icon.
• Click on Storage on the left side, on the right side under
  Save locations, select the drive to where you want your
  documents, music, pictures, and/or
  videos to be saved to by default.
• Click/tap on Apply.

The above settings option is available only from the Windows version (10586), I suggest you to check in which version of Windows build in installed on your computer.

Please get back to us with an update on this issue, we will be happy to assist you further.

Thank you
