I have a ginormous amount of files in my Temporary Internet Files (the
content.ie5 one in Local Settings).
A troubleshooting website told me to sign in through Safe Mode as the
admin, which I thought was a bit weird since my username IS the admin,
and access the files that way.
I found out soon enough that I couldn't unless I enabled the security
settings so that I (as admin) would be able to access my T.I.F.
I was able to free up some space and was planning on finishing the
rest tomorrow, so I restarted to log in under my regular account and
found out that I could not because of insufficient security
privileges.
I am afraid to shut off my computer because I heard that if you
restart, the temporary profile overwrites your regular one and you
lose all your documents.
