With Windows 10 Fall Creators Update version , Microsoft introduced a new option in Storage sense to automatically delete files from the Downloads folder or delete temp files that are not using. The option, when turned on turned off by default , automatically deletes unchanged files and temp files from the Downloads folder or Recycle Bin after 30 days. Step 2. In the Storage sense section, turn on the Storage sense feature by moving the slider to on position.
Step 3. Click Change how we free up space link. Once again, make sure that you have turned on Storage sense feature as mentioned in the first step. You can just try a file recovery software from EaseUS. It allows you to restore up to 2GB files for free. You can directly download it here and recover automatically deleted files easily. Step 1. Click the "Scan" button to start looking for deleted files that can be recovered. When the scan completes, you can click the "Filter" menu or type in the "Search files or folders" field to home on certain files that match the criteria you specify.
Select and preview files to determine which ones you would like to recover. Click the "Recover" button to restore them.
Also note that there are some program installations which work in two steps. The first step concludes by writing temporary files and rebooting. The second step starts automatically after rebooting and needs to find those files there and then deletes them when it's done. Other than doing it automatically when rebooting that would interfere with installations like the kind I described , it's always safe to delete the contents of the temp folder.
Because it's safe to delete any temp files that aren't open and in use by an application, and since Windows won't let you delete open files, it's safe to try to delete them at any time. If any fail to delete because they're open, they'll either be deleted automatically when the app using them closes, or you'll get them the next time you delete manually. Some people may suggest that you reboot before deleting anything, but that's not necessary, for the reason described above on the other hand, it doesn't hurt to do it.

The reason for this is that sometimes having these files on your computer can actually get to have internal errors which will obviously slow down your computer.
When your hard drive has lots of temporary files, each file is separated in more than one piece. This causes your drive to become heavily fragmented and your drive will spend more time searching files than reading them.
As a result of this, your computer will slow down. Hopefully this will answer your question If you are talking about internet temporary files then this will not cause any problems at all.
