Word 2007 is not auto deleting the temp files on a few machines.

The program or computer is not crashing. The file is working correctly. We have no problem deleting those temp files once we have closed out of the file.

If another user works on the same file they don't have the problem. It has to be machine related.

Any idea?

I read the article but I still do not understand why when you delete something it doesn't stay deleted. When you want to save something you create a file name & save the E-mail. When you open the file it says it's empty. I'm 67 and it is very hard to understand

Thanks for that. I can delete the temp file one by one. There are over a 1000. I cannot delete the the temp files all at once or even in small blocks. I am not sure what 'if a programme is using the file' means because all programmes are closed down other than explorer. Cheers

Sometimes, you will not be allowed to delete a file if a program is using it at the time.

Leo: I have just tried cleaning out temp files using *.tmp The search surprised me finding so many temp files. However, when I tried to delete them using clt-A and shift-delete I got the message: Error Deleting Files or Folder
Cannot delete file: Cannot read from the source file or disk. So where have I gong wrong? Cheers
