I am trying to change the location to where the temporary internet files are kept. I want to put them on another drive. Can you give me the path to them so I can change it? Thanks

hello, firefox uses the location for local application data set by the windows operating system to store its cache and other temporary files:

%localappdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\ which is usually placed under C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local

The path C:\users\<username>\appdata\local doesn't exist. The Appdata isn't there.

open a windows explorer window and type %localappdata% into the address bar - this should lead you to the folder!

You can find the path of the disk cache on the about:cache page.
