the temp project is created when you start recording in a set which does not yet belong to a project. (haven't saved yet)

it gets removed to the save location once you do..

the .cfg file is present in every project folder. it has some info about the project (file management index of some sort?) not sure.

i keep a folder called 'rescued from temp' and occasionally do some housecleaning in the working directory. anything good i find in the folders, i drag to the rescue folder, and then trash the temps...

thanks

i think most of these are just temps for when i open live to do some problem solving on the forum

[longjohns]

if you close without a save, it should give you a dialog box about "do you want to delete temporary files"

[buzby]

yeah - i always delete temporary files if im not saving the set

thanks

I just deleted a bunch of temp projects. I didn't realize there were so many of them just laying around.
