Windows 10: What temp files does Windows 10 when browsing Youtube using Firefox? Where do I find these...

I'm trying to find the location of Youtube videos and any related files that are stored in Windows 10 when browsing using Firefox. Are videos themselves stored? Are the titles? What else is stored? Where do I find these files/folders in Windows? Is the location different for Edge and Chrome? The most specific information possible is desirable.Thanks.

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
