    Hi,

    To have a clarity of the issue, we will need some more information. So kindly write back with the following information:

    1. Where are you looking for the option
    2. Please
      post a screenshot       of the missing Internet Temp File Location. Please make sure that no personal information is available in the screenshot.
    3. Which version of Windows are you using?

    Meanwhile here are few things that you can try:

    1. Open Internet Explorer and then click on Internet Options.
    2. Then click on Settings under Browsing history.
    3. You should be able to view the Current location. Default location should be: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\
    4. You can click on View files to view temp files.

    For Microsoft Edge, please follow the suggestion provided in the article:

    Temp and TMP and Temporary Internet Files locations

    Technical Level : Intermediate

    Summary

    Environment variables are a way to store configuration data, two environment variables emerged as the front-runners for specifying where temporary files should go: TEMP and TMP.

    Details

    The Summary is from:

    Why are there both TMP and TEMP environment variables, and which one is right? | The Old New Thing

    It goes back to the days of CP/M

    Temporary Folders are used by almost every program on a computer, either during the installation of a program, or for the operation of the app/program.

    These are the default values of some of the more important Temporary Folders.

    Temporary Internet Files:

    Please see:

    Change location of TEMP files folder to another drive

    Start Internet Explorer.

    On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.

    On the General tab, click Settings.

    Click Move Folder. [move only if not set to default, or you need to move to another drive]

    Click the folder you created in Step 1.

    Click OK, click OK, and then click OK again.

    Restart your computer

    and

    Microsft Edge has become extremely slow


    • Open Internet Explorer.
    • Click on the Gear icon, and select Internet Options.
    • On the General tab, under Browsing History, go to Settings.
    • On the Temporary Internet Files tab, click on Move folder. [move only if not set to default, or you need to move to another drive]

    Default location is -

    C:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\

    i.e.->C:\Users\JoeCool\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\

    See:

    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/itpro/windows/deploy/usmt-recognized-environment-variables

    TEMP-The temporary folder on the computer. A typical path is %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp.

    TMP-The temporary folder on the computer. A typical path is %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp.

    To check your values -> in Cortana type 'Advanced System Settings' (click on the best matched results)- Advanced Tab - Click 'Environmental Variables' button - make sure your TEMP and TMP show the variables above.

    After changing the 'Environmental Variables' (Rarely necessary)->Reboot.

    Run a Disk Cleanup with all the boxes checked in the final dialog box. (a good process to run occasionally, even if you are not making changes in 'Environmental Variables').

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17421/windows-free-up-drive-space

    Before messing with any 'Environmental Variables'; verify your backup on FileHistory, OneDrive, or some other method you use->
