Remove vmware-root directory

Hello,

Can I safely remove /tmp/vmware-root directory on guest VM?

I think the directory is required on host, but not required on guest and I would like to remove/move it from /tmp. There are a few logs named vmware-apploader-*.

Host: vSphere 5

Guest: CentOS 6.4, kernel 2.6.32 with vmware-tools 9.4.0.25793 (build-1280544)

Regards,

the folder is for VMware Tools installation files, you can remove it safely after VMware Tools installation.
