Safer Solution in Internal error in mingw32_gt_pch_use_address

Hello! I have been working with Teensy 4.1, using Arduino IDE 2.3.2 and today I encountered the below error for the first time:
internal error in mingw32_gt_pch_use_address, at config/i386/host-mingw32.c:192: MapViewOfFileEx: ����� ���������� ��������� �� ��������� ��� ��� ����� ������.

exit status 1

Compilation error: exit status 1

I reached some discussions made around this topic in this forum and basically the solution was to delete all the files from C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Temp. However, I am a bit afraid of causing even more trouble by deleting all these files from that path :frowning: . Is there maybe another safer solution to this problem?

There shouldn't be any danger. This folder is only used to store files temporarily. I regularly clear that folder on my system and don't have any problems.

You will likely get a message that some files in the folder can't be deleted. Just click the "Skip" button. The skipped files aren't the ones that need to be deleted in order to fix the Teensy error so this is no problem and these are the very files that might actually cause a problem if you managed to delete them (the reason you are unable to delete them is because they are currently in use by some running application or Windows).

If you are concerned, then just make a backup before deleting the folder.
