clean up tool

When I try to clean the c drive, there is a file called temporary files that
will not delete. It is different from the temporary internet files. How do I
delete this?

Are you sure it is not a folder. The temporary folder that is vital for the
proper function of your system as many applications use it?

Windows created temp files may still be in use. The system prevents deletion
if this is the case..
