Windows 7: Can`t find iso file in Windows 7

logicearth · 18 Jul 2010

To make sure nothing would interfere or taint the test I created a virtual machine not five minutes ago to test it out. I added one ".tmp" file to a location that would experience a junction loop C:\Users\Logic\AppData\Local. There was no loop. Whice brings me to the conclusion as before.

Screenshot posted as proof of test.

Well its because you had the application save it to the root of the C: drive.
So in reality it is not in C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore

What you should have done is told the application to save it to your documents or desktop.

Thanks for your interest but it`s too technical for me, i`ll follow your comments above.

logicearth, I see your results but I honestly don't remember changing any permissions. Can you tell me what yours are set to for C:\Documents and Settings? Maybe that will give me a clue.

Then you can put it somewhere else, later, if you like.
I've had my browser set to save to "Desktop" like....Forever!
That way, I never loose anything.

Same thing when I use ImgBurn to make an ISO of a CD or DVD.....I always tell it to save the ISO to my desktop. It just makes life so much easier.

To keep my C drive from getting overloaded with misc. STUFF that I download, I've made an "Extra Stuff" folder on my D drive with a shortcut to it on my desktop.
When I'm done with something I've downloaded, like an install file or an ISO, I just drag and drop it on the 'Extra Stuff' icon on the desktop and VOILA, it's OFF of my C drive and in storage.
With just a little planning, keeping your C drive free of junk (files that you no longer need on your C drive) isn't all that hard.

Cheers!

To whom it may concern-I found the "iso" files. Hope it helps others. Windows 7>>Solution as follows>>> FOUND those hidden .iso files.>> go to computer/local disc C and then click on "compatibility files" at top on toolbar, in there are the HIDDEN .ISO files...Enjoy like i am. Cheers
