Outlook 2003, XP SP2: Does anyone know how long a file will stay in the OLK
folder? The only info I could find was on a 4/1/2005 post that asked: "Can
I expect to recover a temporary file for an edited attachment?" Answer: "If
the modified attachment is still there. Usually it gets deleted." (Brian
Tillman).
I'm teaching a class about editing Outlook attachments and saving them to a
safe place on the network. While I want to show people how to access the OLK
folder, I want to discourage them from directly editing Outlook attachments
by emphasizing the temporary nature of this folder. I just don't know how
temporary it is. For example, will the edited attachment get deleted when
Outlook gets shutdown? When they exit XP? When they shutdown their PC?
