Photos stored in cache?

[thecubemonkey]

Hi all,

I'm curious, if I'm just viewing images from a CD (not stored on my C
Drive), are those photos cached somewhere on my hard drive?

I'm just viewing them using Windows Explorer 'Preview' option or even
the image viewer.

Thanks

No. Thumbnails, or previews, whatever, are stored in the same folder as the
images they belong to. In the case of a CD, those things can't be stored on
the CD, so they aren't created. But the names of the files may be stored in
various MRU locations. Also, if the images are part of a web page, then the
images may well get cached in the TIF system.
