Can i safely delete some files in the Temp folder of my C:/ drive?

I found a ton of old photos i had already put onto CD's in my TEMP folder located in the following ---





C:\Documents and Settings\KINOVA\Local Settings\Temp





Is it safe to delete them to free up more space and whats up with the TEMP folder in general? Is is safe to delete more junk in there??





I'm trying to clean up my computer cause its running out of space so if anyone has any other suggestions for this please send them along!

Yeah you can for sure delete those files. All the temp folder does is store some files for use by some applications ,or, some temp files are created when a program is installed. It's fine to delete them and in fact Windows is supposed to do it automatically but sometimes it misses a few or forgets. And actually if you don't delete your temp files it can lead to problems in the future.


Here's a site that tells you the best way to delete all the temp files on you machine.
Reply:Yes, I delete things from my "TEMP" all the time.. TEMP .. Temp internet..
