Is it safe to delete all files with the .tmp suffix? I have quite a few in a Windows folder named temp, but some are named dir, which I know is a directory file. What can I safely do to clean things up and get the most out of the machine.

Yes, it is safe to delete all .tmp files.

A really good program that will clean all your files for you is ccleaner, which you can get it here for Free: http://www.ccleaner.com/

Here is another nice program:

Thanks! Went to find and threw out all those tmp's and then went to Recycle Bin and could not hoist em from there. Downloaded Ccleaner and it did the job. Thanks!

Let us know if we can help further in the future!
