Removing files from "Temp" directory ?
Can I remove/delete the contents of the Temp folder in the following User directory:
C:\Users\Tim\AppData\Local\Temp
Seems to have an enormous amount of "temp" files...26.6 GB !?
Thanks...TR

yes you should be ok if you have a spare external drive copy them to that then delete the tempory file in c just in case or download ccleaner ..
CCleaner - Optimization and Cleaning - Free Download and if you have never used it read the instructions on there web site for guidance you can use this program for lots of things one of them being finding the tempory files in windows.
Since tyou already know where it is, you could as well just go into that folder, hit CTRL-A then delete and skip all files that can't be deleted (because they're in use ATM). Empty your recycle bin and you're all set without the need of external software

i check mine before deleting due to past experience ie: programs not running right after a reboot after deleting that way.
WIN E key combo | open C drive | in the long bar at the top, type in %TEMP% | select all, for example, using Ctrl-A | delete all, for example, right-click on the selection and choose Delete
Just skp any files which Win 7 doesn't want to delete.
