I have numerous files in c:\winnt\temp, some of which are two years old and older.

Can I safely delete the older files and leave the more current ones?
 
You can delete them all.

I wrote a program to delete *.* in my temp directories every time I boot up. Anything that's in use will give you an error if you try to delete it, so don't worry.
