What is the purpose of this folder? Can any of its

It is for components of application suites that are shared by a variety
of programs. For example MS Office puts quite a lot in a Microsoft
Shared folder there - things like the spell check that can then be used
also by Outlook express, as well as being available to all programs in
the Office suite. Leave it alone
