This is manifestly not so!
I open E:\Temp\example2.lyx in LyX. Then I click the View DVI button
to view in Yap, and the View PDF button to view in Acrobat Reader.
Neither example2.dvi nor example2.pdf is in E:\Temp, either while I am
viewing those files or after I close Yap or Acrobat Reader.
Well, if you pressed file>export>DVI/PDF instead of using the" view"
Buttons, then example2.* would have been where you expected, next to
your example2.lyx. The "view" Buttons always create temporary files. But
I'm not sure why your temporary PDF is located in another directory as
your temporary DVI.

... and now after quitting and restarting LyX, at least .dvi files
are created in subdirectories of E:\Temp\lyx (as are .html files
when I export to that format).
However, .pdf files are created in a subdirectory of C:\Documents
and settings. How do I change this?
The exported files are saved in the directory of the lyx file that is
being exported.
The working directory is the default location where LyX looks for
documents and where you are expected to save a new document. (So,
this has nothing to do with exporting files).
