Is it safe to clear AppData > Local > Temp (%temp%) files? Having troubles with games freezing, then crashing (ref: #1062596053838331954) - gone through process of elimination, firstly by running the DDU and reinstalling GPU Drivers, ran a "sfc /scannow", ensured windows + optional updates were up to date, now I have stumbled across a form post online recommending to clear out the temp files. Just want to ensure I do it correctly to eliminate breaking anything lol.

Spec List:
Ryzen 9 5900X CPU
Corsair h145i Elite LCD CPU AIO
EVGA RTX 3080ti GPU
ASUS Rog Crosshair VIII Dark Hero MB
x4 16gb Corsair Vengeance 3600mhz (64gb) RAM
