Where do downloaded Word files go?

Question

My mom's a webcourse teacher and I let her use my laptop to do some work and she had to access some students papers and print them off to grade them. Where did these files go so I can delete them? If you know please tell me which folders I have to go through to get to them.

They are not in "My Documents".

Answer 1

I would check your temp directory:  

On Windows XP:

C:\Documents and Settings\your username\Local Settings\temp

On Windows Vista:

C:\Users\your username\Local Settings\Temp

Note that you may not be able to navigate into Local Settings in Vista, but if you enter the full path name in the address window, you can jump over it and get into Temp.

Hope that helps.

Answer 2
