Lately, a mysterious empty folder called inetpub has been appearing
on Windows machines after recent Microsoft security updates.

I have it, where the folder has a date of 3/6/2025 but I have no idea what
it is used for. Mine isn't empty though.

dir /s/a/l/on/b inetpub
c:\inetpub\custerr
c:\inetpub\temp
c:\inetpub\custerr\en-us
c:\inetpub\custerr\en-us\500-100.asp
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools
c:\inetpub\temp\iis temporary compressed files
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools\apc1690.tmp
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools\apc17c9.tmp
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools\apc1846.tmp
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools\apc1855.tmp
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools\apc7cb.tmp
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools\apcc4f.tmp
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools\apcef03.tmp
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools\apcf898.tmp
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools\apcfaea.tmp
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools\apcfe26.tmp
c:\inetpub\temp\apppools\bindinginfo.tmp

Can someone just give me the best way to get rid of it safely?
