Hi,
This folder is used for storing part of the System Tester reports. The Summary and System tabs of your reports are stored directly within the ST_DATA.MDB file. The Results folder should contain the Orders, Positions, and Equity data of your system test reports.
Typically cleaning the results is a good idea and should help keep things to a reasonable size, although I could see where results might get stuck in the folder in some situations. It is definitely safe to delete the Results folder. The other folder that can contain reports is the Explore folder. This folder is also safe to delete, but you will lose all exploration reports. Deleting any other files may have adverse affects on the program, but these 2 particular folders are safe to delete as long as you're ok with losing any previous reports.
