EnvironmentVariable.TempPath Field

  • Article

Applies To: Windows 8.1

Assessments can use this parameter to determine where it can store temporary data and state while the assessment is running. For example, if the assessment includes rebooting the system, the assessment needs to record its state before rebooting the system so it knows where to resume when the assessment is invoked again. Such state information should be recorded in this temporary location. AXE will use the standard Windows Temporary directory as root. This lets Windows clean up temporary data in case AXE fails to due to a crash or other failure. AXE will recursively delete all the data in this directory after the assessment as exited. Note that there is a job flag that disables this deletion. This is designed for debugging assessment problems during development.
