Whats in this folder? Is i t safe ti delete everything in it? I found folders for rain which i thought i had uninstalled completely. There were 4 folders for em called install1 install2 etc. So is i t safe to delete eevrything in it?

I use a batch file to delete this folder every time I boot up. If the folder gets too big, ME will run slower. So yes, it is safe to delete the contents of the c:\windpws\temp - folder.
