temporaryfiles--can I delete
« on: June 06, 2011, 12:52:08 PM »
Hi Everyone, have been pulling my hair out for weeks, why?? my computer
is sloooow, you click and are left hanging for minutes before anything happens.
It sometimes freezes to the point where i have to turn off manually.

I have tried a lot of things and are now down to the last couple of solutions.
I read that temporary files can slow computer down and I just found 118 temporary files on my C.DRIVE. They all have .tmp at the end.

Is it safe to delete them?? could this be my problem?? should  i try to open them and see what they are??
