Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This is generally temporary cache data, so removing it is usually low risk. However, Edge may need to rebuild the cache afterward, and some websites may load more slowly at first or require fresh sign-in or content downloads.
Recommendation: You can usually remove this folder's contents if you need to free space or troubleshoot Microsoft Edge display or loading problems. Keep it if Edge is working normally and storage pressure is low, since the browser will recreate cache files as needed.
