Ever since I started using Live 8 I've been getting intermittent messages that say:

For an unknown reason, Live could not delete the temporary files from G:\Temp\Temp-nn Project\

The Temp folder fills up with stuff and I go in and manually delete them.

The reason appears to be that in these folders the Ableton Project Info folder is write-protected.

G:\Temp is what I set in preferences.

Yep, I'm getting this too. Even just when closing an empty set.

I have the same problem. Any tips on deleting the folders? I could not delete Temp Project and its new siblings Temp-1 ... Temp-4 Project folders. I am running XP SP3.

Sometimes i get that too.

Well last night I had to rollup my sleeves and whip out a DOS box. After handjobbing the temp folders with attrib -R commands so I could delete them, I am now back to the original Temp Project folder.

i've gotten this error since live 6 believe it or not. what is going on here? it doesn't happen all the time... when it does happen, it displays the error when i close the program. i'm also running xp sp3.
