You can safely delete them all

I no longer provide installation support on forum for all my modules. However, if there are real bugs with the modules please feel free to contact me

Change both your 'config' files, second last line, to look like this:

define('SQL_CACHE_METHOD', 'none');

The learning is in the doing.

Re: yourstore/cache folder getting to fat

you mean this define('DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE', 'change the file location here to none');

NO. That MUST point to a valid path.

If the files you're seeing there are query log or parse time log files, then go to Admin->Configuration->Logging and turn off the Store Page Parse Times To File, and the Store Database Queries options.
