I'm trying to free up space on a clients SBS 2011 server and have found 50GB of files in the Temp folder in the Windows directory. It seems to be mostly full of cab files that are all the same file size, 116,165KB anyone ever seen this? Can I delete these?

Anything in a Temp folder is typically safe to delete. You'll know if it's used because you'll get a cannot delete error while it's going. To be safe you could just dump them into the Recycle Bin for now.
This type of tying usually happens when techs use temp folders for files they are working on then forget to delete them.
