Simply NO,unless you have a backup image of the drive or you know for sure those files are ssfe to delete however if any windows files get turfed you may not be able to get past the login or you'll get a stack of error messages popping up,don't put any faith in system restore to rescue you it's about as good as a set of gumboots with holes
