Those files might become corrupt or compromised even if the originals they were copied from are still good. It’s safe to delete all files from the Prefetch directory, which will cause Windows to recreate new prefetch files as needed from the originals.

But, the average computer user should take a closer look at Run for its versatility to start programs and utilities, to open files and folders, to open web sites (when connected to the Internet), and as an alternative to placing shortcuts on the desktop. Its now safe to delete the key.

Application prefetch files are referenced only after application launch has been initiated. Checking the last access time stamps on these files will show this to be true. Unused or rarely used entries will have virtually no impact on performance.

To recover disk space, remove files under the proxy's root. It is safe to delete the proxy's cached files while the proxy is running. By default, p4 sync writes files to the client workspace. If you have a dedicated client workspace that you use to prefetch files for the proxy, however, this step is redundant.
