Fail safe test (useful for many such cases):
1. Rename the folder with prefix x i.e. here \xIE8\
2. Reboot and run as normal.
If IE runs OK, you can probably delete this folder.
If IE will not run, just rename the folder correctly
and reboot.
3. If ultra conservative, make a folder called \Discards
and Move into it folders for potential deletion. Leave
them there until you next remember them, and delete
as convenient.
