Is it safe to delete files in the Windows Installer folder?

Over time the folder C:\Windows\Installer can grow a lot, many computers or laptops with small HD can have some problems.

The C:\Windows\Installer folder is really important because is where some applications uninstall files and folders are stored, if you delete the files you are not going to be able to uninstall correctly the applications.

Something you can do is backup this folder and when an application needs to be removed you can restore the files from the backup, the uninstall process should work just fine.
