Where's that damn folder at? The button to do it in Internet Options just has things running for a long time but not end. I guess this could just mean I have a crapload of stuff in there, but I'd like to see for myself.
Also: is this where the Cookies are too?

Just leave it running. It will take just as long using explorer as it would with IE. Also it really doesnt help to have multi-gb of temp files, when the common file size is ~20 kb.

simplest way is as follows:
start>settings>taskbar and menu properties
click on start menu. then click on customize, assuming you're using classic start menu. from there click the clear button that's next to the recycle bin icon.
