I want my to be able to copy my "Temporary Internet Files". I turned off UAC but an still denied access to the folder!!! How can I get access???

To see the IE cache subfolders and their content in Windows Explorer, type this in the Run box:
"C:\Users\(Your User Name)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5"
"Noreply"

My problem is somewhat similar, but I'm still having problems. I don't like any files in the Temporary Internet Files directory to be hidden. They are not hidden using IE7 with XP, but they are hidden using IE7 using Vista.
I set the Folder Options > View tab area to Show hidden files and folders, but that did not work on the Temporary Internet Files directory. I also cleared the check box for Hide protected operating system fileseven though these are not OS files AFAIC.
Still, the Temporary Internet Files directory remains partially hidden. Some cookies remain visible, but others remain hidden. In particular, I like to monitor and block certain third-party cookies, but if I cannot see them, I cannot block them!
I know how to navigate to the the Temporary Internet Files directory through IE7 and through Windows Explorer. By the way, the Content.IE5 is not present.
Ideas, please? Thank you.
Why is Microsoft trying to hide Temporary Internet Files?

Your Internet Explorer cache is here: C:\Users\(Your User Name)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5 and, possibly, here: C:\Users\(Your User Name)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Low\Content.IE5
Your Cookies are here: C:\Users\(Your User Name)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies and, possibly, here: C:\Users\(Your User Name)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies\Low
Using Windows Explorer, you can navigate to your Cookies folder, but not to your actual Temporary Internet Files sub-folders (if you right-click the Temporary Internet Files folder, at C:\Users\(Your User Name)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows, and choose Properties, you will see how many sub-folders it contains). By using Run, however, you can view those sub-folders. Besides checking "Show hidden files and folders", "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)" must be un-checked in Folder Options. The Run (Windows key + R) command should work, as per my previous post, or try "C:\Users\(Your User Name)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Low\Content.IE5".
The Temporary Internet Files folder, as it stands, is a special folder that gives a cookies and cache combo view of those files (the files are really elsewhere on your computer, as noted above). However, this special view, effectively, blocks using Explorer from navigating further to its sub-folders.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, dean-dean!!!
The path to the cookies is what I wanted, and now I can see them. Thank you again.
