Configuring a caching folder for user profile pictures

By default, Content Manager Explorer caches the profile pictures of its users in the location c:\temp. Only if you have a pressing reason to do so, you can change this location.

Procedure

  1. Access the Content Manager server and navigate to the folder %TRIDION_HOME%\Web\webUI\WebRoot\Configuration\. In this location, open System.config for editing.
  2. In the paths section, set the value of the Tridion.CacheDirectory to a local of network folder.
  3. In the server element, increase the value of the modification element by 1.
  4. Save and close System.config.
  5. Ensure that the user who uses the SDL Web Application Pool (the NetworkService account by default) has write access to this folder.
  6. Restart the Content Manager Explorer Web site (or perform an IIS reset).
