[WayBack] Deleting the WebCache database – The IE browser cache | Apttech’s Blog quotes from WayBack: C drive space is using up on terminal server after upgrading to IE10 or IE11 – AsiaTech: Microsoft Azure & Development:
With the new cache implementation, the cache files are saved in %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Windows\WebCache\ folder. And, the cache files will be created when a new user logs on.
Actually, the database is a file named WebCacheV01.dat in the cache folder, and its initial size could be around 20-32MB. The size of this file will keep increasing along with you browse more and more websites.
…
save the below contents into ClearIECache.cmd file and try to fun this file.
echo OFF
net stop COMSysApp
taskkill /F /IM dllhost.exe
taskkill /F /IM taskhost.exe
taskkill /F /IM taskhostex.exe
del /Q %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Windows\WebCache\*.*
net start COMSysApp
echo ON
Furthermore, you’d better deploy the batch file to a logoff script of your local GPO, here are the steps.

For my link archive: [WayBack] browser – How to connect a website has only IPv6 address without domain name? – Super User (thanks haimg):
According to RFC2732, literal IPv6 addresses should be put inside square brackets in URLs, e.g. like this:
http://[1080:0:0:0:8:800:200C:417A]/index.html
If you also need to specify a port other then 80 to access the server it has to be placed after the closing bracket:
http://[1080:0:0:0:8:800:200C:417A]:8888/index.html
Of course, you have to have end-to-end IPv6 connectivity to that host. E.g. if the server is not inside your own local network, you need to have IPv6 connectivity, either via your ISP (rare), or via some kind of IPv6 in IPv4 encapsulation (tunnel).

Just in case it’s not enabled yet: How to enable JavaScript in your browser and why
It even has some html to redirect to it, which I’ve replaced with the wayback machine (and put into a gist as WordPress kills noscript tag blocks and everything they contain.
I needed it as at a client site, one of the embedded devices would show the message “Javascript is required to use this web portal” in various web browsers so I had to check the JavaScript status in each browser.

You’d think Temporary Internet Files from Internet Explorer will be in that directory, right?
After upgrading to Internet Explorer 10 or 11 that is not true any more.
I got the below batch file to cleanup the WebCache directory via C drive space is using up on terminal server after upgrading to IE10 or IE11 – AsiaTech: Microsoft APGC Internet Developer Support Team
