Problem With Xammp And Deleting Temp Files

I have a problem with Xammp and don't know if anyone here can help me out. The people at the Xammp forum arent very helpful, but I got a little info out of them. My Xammp worked at first when I went to localhost/xammp, but then for some reason, it didn't. Come to find out, it is because something was deleting it's temp files, least that's what they say at Xammp's forum. I run a program called Clean-Up! that gets rid of cookies and temp files and such, but there is no way to configure it to not get rid of Xammps files. But I was wondering something. I went to windows start menu, system tools, and disk clean up, and there it has an option for 'Web Client/ Publisher Temporary Files'. Does anyone know if this is what I should be keeping for Xammp and getting rid of the regular temporary files? I'm getting very frustrated that every time I try to clean up my computer I lose access to Xammp!

I am not sure but cleaning up temp files are those files that are in the Windows temp folder, it should have nothing to do with PHPs temp files which are in the c:\Program Files\xamppp\tmp folder unless you created another one and then redifined where you put it in the php.ini file. It just hold stuff like session cookies and what not and might only have two or three files. Usuall it will destroy files when they are no longer needed.

The temp folder in the c:\WINDOWS\Temp however has all kinds of stuff and is used when you install programs and doesn't necessarily clean them up just look in there and you will see what I mean.

You might need to uninstall and reinstall your xampp install cause it sounds like there is some file corruntion or configuration maladies. When reinstalling just accept the defaults as the install goes about its thing.

    Hi, is there any way to find out a file's original file type/extension? My friend gave me this
    song from a Chinese series and I had to play around with the extensions until I got it working (made
    it .wmv). He doesn't even know the original format, but I'm guessing he's using wmv to
    use it also. I tried naming it to .mp3 and .wma to see if those work...both failed. I like to keep
    all my audio files as mp3 files. Was going to look for a program to convert it to mp3, but have a
    question. I highly doubt this file was originally a .wmv file since it's jus....
