Lot of folders in Temp folder

Did you scroll down the list to see the 'Temporary files' item? This is where it should appear in the list. If you tick the box and click OK Disk Clean-up should delete any files or folders in temp that are over a week old.

It is usually safe to delete the files in C:\users\<your_name>\appdata\local\temp but with regular use of Disk Clean-up you shouldn't need to do it by hand.
