Remember the good ole days when deleting your temp files was a way to clean up your system? It did the same thing with XP and now several programs (including Explorer) crash when trying to open large files.
Most all of my graphic programs will crash when I try to save or when I scroll through files with explorer. I think some GOOD temp files are gone?? Any help?? Anything
Thanks
 
This has nothing to do with temp files unless you just installed something
and was told to re-boot and you did not reboot in which case it is possible.
More likely, you either deleted something more than temp files or it's just
a coincidence.

Cleaning temp files works the same way as it did in the "old days". It is
fine to delete anything in the temp folder and windows will not allow you to
delete something in the temp folder that is being used, so that's not your
problem. It is reccommended to clean the temp folders often.
Any error messages?
