I would guess they are some sort of backup/restore folders. Can they be moved or deleted, please?

See this for amd64 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64
i386 has to do with your processor, as above.
The i386 folder holds the files used to install, repair, modify, update and rebuild Windows. Though these files are also located on your Windows installation CD (if you have one), I recommend you not delete anything located here. Deleting these files won’t recover much room, and the convenience of having the files there save a lot of time for us techie-types. (The contents of the i386 folder can commonly be found in the folder at C:\Windows\Options\Cabs. This Windows "cabs" folder is essentially the same as the i386 folder.)
They look like extracted Windows updates. They are created when you install an update manually.
I deleted them without any ill effects, but I don't think you should. Better make a backup first.
