Filemaker storing data

Featured Replies

Hi there,

not sure where I should post this question - but here goes:

When accessing a hosted version of the DB - does Filemaker write or store ANY data to the local disk ?

I am thinking specifically about temp files etc.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Corporate IT send out a 4 page questionaire concerning the new corporate build which will include Filemaker -

It's one of the questions -

I am no Windows expert - so no idea why they need to know -0 BUT, If I do not answer it - no progress.

Yes it does. You should try to have at least 1 GB free space on your drive to facilitate this. The TEMP file is cleaned away on exit.
