Windows 10: Is it safe to delete files in the appdata/roaming folder if I copied the files to an...

I installed a game onto my laptop a few months back and just played it recently, only to find the files and folders in the appdate/roaming folder just bit a large chunk out of my disk space the large amounts of space that Windows updates take up don't help either, especially since it takes so long for the temp files from them to be deleted. I figured out I can copy the files to my external and change the directory so the game pulls from my external and not the appdata/roaming folder. Since I copied all the files to my external, is it safe for me to delete the ones in my appdata/roaming folde

Java.nio.file - Copying files

You can't copy a folder, thats why it generates an exception (you are trying to copy a folder using a copy file function).
You probably need to list all the files inside that folder and copy one by one
