Help please: C:\windows\Temp vanished.

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I was looking at explorer yesterday and noticed there was no C:\windows\temp
folder.

I created a folder with that mane and put it into the root drive lineup so
it now looks like it should.

But I am wondering if my just creating the folder was enough. Is there some
setting in the registrey that creates this folder? If so I suspect it got
deleted or corrupted and that is why the folder vanished.

Does anyone know the registry lines I need to check and possibly put back?
Or is just creating the folder myself enough. Seems too easy somehow.

Many thanks for any ideas.
