Hi,

I have a problem when I open ms word or excel file. When I open those files from XYplorer , a temporary file with a name of a file ~$name.rtf is created and when i close that file in word or excel ~$name.rft disappears. Everything works fine, but its distracting when that happens.
The size of that file is only 1kb
Can i stop that from hapening?

When I open work.rtf a temp.file is created ~$work.rtf

when I open pdf, jpeg a temp.file is not created.
when i open rtf or xls from win.explorer temp.file is not created.

Thank you.

This is a file that is created through the office application, not XYplorer. The reason why you don't see it inside Windows Explorer is because you don't let it show hidden files (but you do so in XY)...
