KB14: CDBurnerXP paths and settings

Settings
Some settings are stored in the registry at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CDBurnerXP
, however, most settings for Windows 2000 until 2003 are stored at
C:\Documents and settings\{USER}\Application data\Canneverbe_Limited
\cdbxpp.exe_Url_{...}\{VERSION}\user.config
or at the location below for Windows Vista:
C:\Users\{USER}\AppData\Roaming\Canneverbe_Limited
\cdbxpp.exe_Url_{...}\{VERSION}\user.config
Temporary files
CDBurnerXP stores all temporary files within the system defined folder for temporary data. You can easily locate this folder by going to Start –> Run, typing “%temp%” and pressing enter. Temporary data which has been generated as a result of processing audio files are stored within a subfolder “TempRips” in this directory. This directory is emptied automatically by CDBurnerXP on a regular basis (because these files might take up a lot of disk space).
To change the location of your temporary directory, open the system properties (Windows-key + Pause or rightclick on “My Computer” and “Properties”), go to the tab “Advanced”,
click on “Environment variables”
and edit the values for TEMP/TMP.
To ensure system stability, you should always have plenty of free space available on the drive used for the temporary folder.
