Reinstall the programs from the installation media; i.e., CDs or installable
executables downloaded from the Internet.

If you delete the new Windows folder, you will no longer have a Windows
installation. The 'old' Windows folder contains all of your user generated
files in Documents, Music, Pictures etc, so you don't want to delete it
until such time as you have copied your won files out of it to the NEW
Documents, Music, Pictures etc.

To get your applications running again, you will need to use the original
installation media for each application as Malke has already told you..
