My Backup folder

I had to restore my E machine, but I didn't choose to factory condition. So I
chose one of the selections to save files etc. & then went into restore. I
have managed thru copy/ paste to take some files out of this folder, &
restored it into my pc. My problem is -
1 - how do I restore the programs that are in My Backup folder?
2 - Can I eventually delete the Backup folder?

Programs are restored by reinstalling the program from the original media.

It is a data folder. You can delete when you no longer need the data in the
folder.
