Default Low disk space

Disk space is low...
I'vedone all of the steps to clean up and recover space
but I an still on the edge.
I started looking around the drive to see if I could find
some files I might not need.

In the Windows Dir.I found a TEMP File with many folders
and sub folders.
The total amount of space being used in this temp folder
is 10.7 GB.

This seems like a lot to me and I would like to know if I
can Deleat this stuff.
Please respond ASAP, I' in deep ....

Default Low disk space

The Windows\Temp folder is a temporary folder and you can safely delete the
entire contents of this folder. I would however recommend that you first
reboot your PC and then delete the contents of the folder as one purpose of
this folder is to store files during software or driver installs that cannot
be moved to their correct location until the system reboots or the
installation is completed.
