Although I was unable to find the image I was looking for I was able to see where it would have been stored. &nbsp;I must have waited too long to retrieve it.

I have a yahoo email account that I accidentally deleted before saving one of the image files.<br />
<br />
When opening the email I can see a thumbnail image of the picture and when I choose the &quot;download&quot; option to view the image I can see that the image downloaded to what I'm assuming is the cache and the image opens in the Pictures/Fax viewer. &nbsp;From the Firefox download options I chose to Open the file only, not to Download the image to my drive.<br />
<br />
My question is - is that image file that &quot;downloaded&quot; saved anywhere as a temp file or is it erased once the email/picture is closed? &nbsp;This happened 2 days ago and I have not cleared any of the temp files from my computer. &nbsp;Thank you in advance.

Where does Firefox store email images?
