Windows Temp folder

Enterprise Vault services write temporary files to the Windows Temp folder. If the Temp folder is on the system disk, this can cause the following problems:

We recommend that, on every computer that is running an Enterprise Vault service, you move the Windows Temp folder to a disk other than the system disk.

  3. On the Windows desktop, right-click My Computer and then click Properties.

  4. Click the Advanced tab and then click Environmental Variables.

  5. In the User variables section, click the TEMP variable.

  6. Modify the value so that it points to the new folder that you created.

  7. In the User variables section, click the TMP variable.

  8. Modify the value so that it points to the new folder that you created.
