Environmental Variable and temp directory
Environmental Variable and temp directory
(OP)
In the SolidWorks Best Practice Guide, under Administration, in Troubleshooting a Crash-Prone System there is the following statement:
Is the temp directory specified as a system variable within the Environmental Variable dialog box? This should point to a directory that has sufficient free space.
What temp directory are they talking about? I have three: “C:\Documents and Settings\bradley\Local Settings\Temp” and “C:\temp” and “C:\WINNT\Temp”
I do clean my Local Settings Temp folder. Is this the one they are talking about?
C:
cd %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings
rd /s/q Temp
md Temp

RE: Environmental Variable and temp directory
Under "Tools --> Options --> System Options --> Backups" is where SW designates its backup directory. Clean this one out occasionally, as well.
