Every time we carry out any action on programs, applications or files, Windows 10 generally creates temporary files that contain information and details of those sites and applications so that their settings will load faster in future accesses. Although most of the time we will only get files that are not useful at all, this causes that little by little the disk is filled with unnecessary files and objects when that space can be used for more important data..
The Temp folder stores information temporarily especially when we use a program, at that time temporary data is being created, but when closing the program it should disappear. In this way, this folder stores a data backup in case the computer closes the program by surprise and thus we do not lose data. If you want to access the Temp folder (temporary) in Windows 10, TechnoWikis will explain two methods to achieve it.
