Temp folder purpose sought
There's a folder
C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\
with a lot of files. Some relate to programs, some are big backup files, some are downloads, and some I are unclear. I have no idea how the downloads or backup files got there. Some folder names are interesting, like
E65A820E-A987-4847-9356-3B0CFBDBFF2D
It seems that when some files are downloaded there's no option to select a destination folder, and the download ends up in C:\~temp\. The backup files should not be there.
I've moved data files to the correct area, and deleted a lot of duplicate data files that were in C:\~\temp\.
Can someone please advise me of the purpose of C:\~\temp\, and how I can stop files from being put in there? TIA
