I have an application written in Python that\'s writing large amounts of data to the %TEMP%
folder. Oddly, every once and awhile, it dies, returning IOEr
There should be no trouble whatsoever with regard to your %TEMP% directory.
What is your disk quota set to for %TEMP%'s hosting volume? Depending in part on what the apps themselves are doing, one of them may be throwing an error due to the disk quota being reached, which is a pain if this quota is set unreasonably high. If the quota is very high, try lowering it, which you can do as Administrator.
