Thread: Vista's cookies folder

IF YOU CLICK Start, type cookies, and press <Enter>, Vista tries to do what XP did: Take you to your Cookies folder, located at C:\Users\your_ logon\cookies. The problem is that, in Vista, the Cookies folder isn't located where it was in Win¬dows XP. Instead, Vista has a pointer in the old location that tells it where the real Cookies folder can be found. Since Vista apparently doesn't believe you should be privy to this information, it tells you that the folder isn't accessible.



Well, I think you can handle the knowledge, and you deserve full access to your PC. To locate the actual folder, click Start, type C:\Users\user¬name\App Data \Roam i ng\M i crosoft\ Wi nd ows\Cookies\Low, and then press <Enter>. These steps should take you to the real Cookies folder. Once you've found the correct folder, you can make it easily accessible: Hold down the right mouse button while you drag the Cookies folder icon from Windows Explorer's Folder pane to the desktop, the Start menu, or some other convenient location. When you release the button, select Create Shortcut Here.
