Firefox Temporary Media Files Where are they stored?

Recommended Posts

Sometimes when I view video tutorials online and I want get pleased with the flash or mp4 I will be viewing online. When I try to seach for the temporary file stored by Firefox so that I can save it in another drive I fail to find it. Does anyone know where these files are stored and which format they will be in?

One day I opened the folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\Rare\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles6qbhaqp.default\Cache
and found a lot of files without extentions. Could these be the files.

Browser temp files locationFirefox Temporary Media Files

Whether it is firefox, IE or other browsers your temporary files (media and other) from online activity can generally be found in the following location:

C:Documents and Settings''Your user name here without quotes''Local SettingsTemp

If you are searching for a flash file it will display as *.Tmp, as an example - fla09.Tmp. Once flash video completely download yo can use a software to copy the file, remane extension to *.Flv and watch in a player supporting flv.NB: When you close your browser these files usually delete themselves.

Many softwares exist - here is one recommendation: OrbitDownloader
