I lost my User Variables.. waah

Recommended Posts

First of all, I want to say thanks to all the guys that set me straight about Win2k.. i LOVE it now.. smile

 

I need a little help though.. i made a boo-boo.. Under CONTROL PANEL->SYSTEM->ADVANCED->ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES, I lost the TWO fields that went into "User variables for administrator".. they relate to TEMP folders and even though temp is also set to c:\winnt\temp and c:\winnt\tmp in SYSTEM VARIABLES, I feel kinda slow without these two as they can no doubt only speed up the performance and not slow it down.. so if anyone can copy these TWO values and tell me what to put in there, I'd GReATLY appreciate it.. u can also write it directly to my e-mail if you want (bojanr@home.com)

 

--Thanks in advance everyone

Under W2K, each user has their own TEMP directory. The correct entry for both the TEMP and TMP environment variables is

 

%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp

 

The %USERPROFILE% env variable is set by the OS and usually points to

 

x:\Documents and Settings\Username
