IE Temp Files

Storage area

Every once in awhile when the Berners-Lee pipeline clogs up, you are instructed to delete the temporary files that IE saves.

You can do it with the Click of an IE Options button.

Here's where those files are stored:

As you see, you could move that location if you wanted to.

No Home in IE

Blanked out

You can open Internet Explorer to a blank page.

Sometimes your normal home page may be too busy, or slow to load when you just want to pop out to a different location.

This trick will give you a blank slate to paste in a new URL.

Create a new Desktop shortcut
(Right click an empty spot on the desktop and choose New>Shortcut)

Copy the following, and paste it as the target for the shortcut:

"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" nohome

Name the shortcut something like Blank IE
