Changing the Location of Temporary Files
The Lenovo Online Data Backup client uses a temporary directory on your hard drive to encrypt your files. For
the encryption process to work correctly, your hard drive must have enough free disk space to fit 130% of the
largest single file you are trying to back up. For example, if the largest file is 1 GB, you'll need 1.3 GB of free
space on your C drive to encrypt the file. You might actually need more space than this, because Lenovo Online
Data Backup encrypts more than one file at a time.
If you have another drive or volume that has enough free space to store the temporary files, then you can switch
the location in which the Lenovo Online Data Backup client places the temporary files.
1. Browse to the new location of your temp location.
2. Right-click in the folder or drive, then click New > Folder.
3. Rename the folder to Temp.
4. Choose one of the following options:
•
Click Start, then right-click My Computer.
•
For Windows Vista, click Start, then right-click Computer.
5. Click Properties.
6. Select one of the following options:
•
Click the Advanced tab, then click Environment Variables.
•
For Windows Vista, click Advanced system settings, then click Environmental Variables.
7. In the User variables group box, select TEMP, then click Edit.
8. In the Variable Value field, type the path of the new temp folder you created.
