    See the "capture multiple level" button? Tap it, then DOWNOAD FULL WEBSITE. You only download one page, that's why it took 5mb only.

    I've already dumped the VM because I wanted to test something for another thread.

    I doubt that the temp files will be stored in a different location just because of the option to download the entire website (and my VM could not handle that much disk space either). You don't need to change anything within Acrobat to move these files - you just need to redirect the Windows user temp folder. Do you need help doing that?

    Reboot before changes take place i guess?

    No risk for any app/system feature to get mad?

    Yes - reboot.

    Well written apps will make use of the environment variables...
    ...thus using your new location.

    Microsoft Security Essentials used to ignore the OS variable for the system temp folder...
    ...I've not tested that lately to see if MS fixed that.
    Issue with Microsoft Security Essentials - can someone try to - Microsoft Community

    Not that you are changing the system temp folder - I'm just pointing out what might happen with a poorly written app. You can leave the user temp folders in place in case some app wants to use them.
