Turbotax file names with "~" prefix

[PS56k]

In looking at our list of Turbotax filenames, I noticed some extra ones...
Not sure if these are some kind of auto-safety files, or just sloppy temp files.

They are the exact same filename as the Turbotax file - except with a prefix "~"
So.... thoughts ?

Those are automatic backups. If you want, you can delete all filenames that start with a tilde.

Thanks, one usually wonders when strange things appear; fear of deleting pertinent info.
