You don't want to touch anything in there.
This is, (short version) keeping track of
processes that are currently running on your
system. Killing any of these files could be
catastrophic.
I found a bunch of files within the /proc directory. I am not sure what
this directory is for and what these files are...does anyone know?? I am
wondering if it is possible for me to delete these - or are these something
that a procedure is running?? Any help would be appreciated.
