Hi Hosein, sorry to hear your having problems. Question: In Windows Explorer
(double click on My Computer Icon or click your 'Windows' Keyboard button and
'E'), In your C:\Program Files folder do you still have all your programs?
Same with your documents, etc?

What do you expect to happen when you install files and programs in a TEMP
directoty??
That TEMP means Temporary! It is not to be used as a folder to install the
programs and files, just a TEMPORARY STORAGE AREA.
Next time, install the Files and Programs in the folder that they are
SUPPOSE to be installed in!
