Lesson from Ken desGarennes, Zayo’s CFO
Had a bit of a crisis today - lost a bunch of work. I was finally able to retrieve the file in the elusive OLK files. It took a while to find and most of the stuff on the Internet did not help. Finally found this gem buried in a forum…
You cannot drill down to this folder in Windows Explorer, even with hidden files revealed. You must use the “Run…” command.
example: Run…
\\[computer name]\c$\Documents and Settings\[profile name]\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files
There you will find the elusive OLK folders
