How to delete temp files from the main drive. The problem I am facing is about the huge amount of temp files creation when I am working with heavy software specially Adobe Photoshop? Even the capacity of C drive finishes.
Kindly help to solve this problem
All you need to do is to remove all the temp files by searching in the search command. And when you get all temp files, delete them. It will free the storage, so that it will improve the working of the software as well as your computer.
No, I have done this a lot. It works but only for the some time. After that temp files generated again. And it is also time consuming, because each time I search for temp files, it takes 10-20 minutes to search. Is there any other, comparatively simple solution. I am fed up with this problem; even I need to do the windows setup again and again. In last week I have done the windows installation 3 times. Please help me out, please.

And Copy paste this code in that file, save this file on your desktop. Whenever you need to delete temp files, just click on this. It will automatically search all temp files on C, D, E, F drives and will remove them also. You can add, Edit and delete drive names from the code.
