Arms flailing wildly in best possible robot impression: Danger Will Robinson!!! Invisible files are usually invisible for a reason. Removing the wrong file can wreck your system and in some cases prevent it from booting.

I don't think there are any critical system files in the location you mentioned but make sure you have a complete backup.
