I do it and find no problems. I think the microsoft way is to go to Programs, Accessories, System Tools, Disk Cleanup, select the drive and go from there.

Since I do this often, I made desktop shortcuts for cleanup and defrag.

You can delete tmp files if you want, no harm will come to you :)

Just don't delete any just after installing a new program, make sure you reboot first, as some programs use a tmp/temp file on first boot after install.

Good point, Norm. Reboot your computer BEFORE you delete temp files.
