What are the files in folder Temporary ASP.NET Files

[AAaron123]

I found some files under:
C:\WINDOWS\Micr osoft.NET\Frame work\v2.0.50727 \Temporary ASP.NET Files\...my
solution\..

Do you know what they are:

RE: What are the files in folder Temporary ASP.NET Files

Easy, they are the compiled (machine code) of your asp.net files like ASPX,
ASMX etc. Why ASP.NET is so fast is because all server files are compiled! So
the cool things is that you can still modify just the ASPX file, move it to
the server, and the next time it's called, it will be compiled and served up
to the user.

But durrting development, you might run into version issues. To fix it,
simply go to your projects temporary directory and delete all the files.

Very cool!

Re: What are the files in folder Temporary ASP.NET Files

I see that most of the stuff in the folder below relates to dead projects
and tests.
I'm only working on one solution.
A couple of items in there I don't recognize so I wonder:
Can I safely delete everything in the folder?

It will just get recompiled if it is needed, Right?

Thanks
