Too many items in temporary folder can slow down the performance of windows operating system. As vista is affected with almost every little thing when it comes to performance it is necessary to clean the temporary folder on regular basis. Windows Vista stores temporary files in these two folders:
Drive:/ Users\{your_user_name}\AppData\Local\Temp
Drive:/ Windows\Temp
Windows vista and applications uses these temporary folders to save the temporary data that is required while application is running and once application is closed those files are not necessary.
You can navigate to these two folders and delete the temporary files manually. You’ll not be able to delete files which are in use. You can also use disk cleanup tool which is available in vista. You can access it from system menu or from command line (cleanmgr.exe).
You can also use CCleaner, Creative elements power tools, easycleaner software to clean the temporary files in vista.
