I noticed this folder is taking up 2.2 gigs of space, do I need anything or everything in there?

How does it get in there in the first place?

screens below. w/descriptions:

Contents of Temp folder. Almost all icons below folders are .tmp files, 470 of them taking up 28 MB.



----------------

Contents of Nero13390, created October 27, 2007, taking up 600+ MB.


----------------

Contents of Nero13390/Cab 580 files, 565 MB


----------------

Contents of Nero13390/Cab/D6C89E66, largest file in folder



thanks for any help I get on this.

wowee mom !!

yeah , you might want to save some of them ... like the "nero .exe" and a few others .
many of the temp files are just that . i would suggest getting "ccleaner" , setting it up to nail just the temp files and run it .
hmmm ... it might just be that nero has installed itself in your temp folder ??!! i dunno ... more coffee is needed on my end .

heh ... your's is the example of why i always tell a program/video where to be dl'ed to , a special dl folder with subfolders for every file ... this helps seperate the wheat from the chaff .

probably ok to delete all of those.

most programs, when you install them, decompress and/or download the installation files to your temp directory and run the install from that location. Once the program's installed you really don't need the files any more.

I wipe out my temp directory all the time.
