Safety overview

Status: Mostly safe

This is generally temporary cache data rather than core browser content. Removing it is usually low risk, but Edge may lose cached website data and may need to re-download content, which can briefly slow browsing or sign you out of some web sessions depending on site behavior.

Recommendation: You can usually remove this cache folder if you need to free space or troubleshoot Edge, but it is best to quit Microsoft Edge first. Keep it if you want to avoid temporary website reloads and possible session-related inconvenience.
