Are you sure you selected all the right folders under CC cleaner? Maybe try a disk cleanup.

Yes you can delete everything in temp, though that's a lot bigger than it should be... do you know which programs are writing those files? Could be malware of some kind.

Delete away, you'll be warned if the files are in use, just skip those. Or link to a drive you'd prefer to hold your temp junk.

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.
