Temporary Internet Files cannot be listed or deleted with the AHK file commands, but the console DIR and DEL commands, with the right options, work. This little script puts up a GUI with a scrollable list of all the temporary internet files. Clicking on one, pops up a confirmation dialog, asking if you want to delete it. If NO, nothing happens, if YES, the selected file is deleted and removed from the list. You can continue removing files. Esc or closing the GUI with the upper right corner [x] exits the script.
It is only the basic functionality. You could extend it with error checking, a refresh- and an exit button, view of the selected file, sort by date or time, multiple selections, special handling of .ini or .dat files, etc.
Because the script deletes files, be careful, not to select important ones, and double check the code before use! I only tested on WinXP.
Code:
TIF = %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files
RunWait %comspec% /c dir "%TIF%" /A:-D /B /S > c:\dir.tmp,,HIDE
FileRead files, c:\dir.tmp
FileDelete c:\dir.tmp
StringReplace files, files, %TIF%\,,ALL
StringReplace files, files, `r`n, |, ALL
