There is a special folder for such temporary items.  An application can
locate it using the Folder Manager.  Any files contained in this folder when
the machine boots will be put into the trash in a folder called "Rescued
Items from <disk>".  You can either retrieve the files (in case they can be
recovered) or you can empty the trash.
