demondata.swapfile.dat and itzmlock files
I am running Acronis True Image 2014 Premium Family Pack Build 6673
Out of the blue my system temp folder is ending up with files that look this:
BVVATH0L~DemonData.swapFile.dat~.itzamlock
V9ASL27R~DemonData.swapFile.dat~.itzamlock
PQ4CR6UJ~DemonData.swapFile.dat~.itzamlock
C745SFUD~DemonData.swapFile.dat~.itzamlock
Q0SFRD36~DemonData.swapFile.dat~.itzamlock
TE5S6UH0~DemonData.swapFile.dat~.itzamlock
VVA8Q0KB~DemonData.swapFile.dat~.itzamlock
VGICN7D9~DemonData.swapFile.dat~.itzamlock
I have never seen these before but recently they are appearing every day. Some research has suggested these should disappear but these don't any more.
When I try to delete them, the delete command is refused saying the file is protected against deletion. I can over-ride this and delete each file manually.
My temp folder is not in the the default windows location but on a separate disk drive and folder from C:.
Is this a bug? Is there a fix? Why did this start recently - I have been running ATIH 2014 6673 since February?
Thanks, in advance, for any suggestions or comments

Hi Anna
Sorry, I didn't see you post until this evening.
After more investigation, I have discovered that the ITZMLOCK files are created with the READONLY attribute. This means that any attempt to delete them will be refused. When I turn the readonly attribute off the files can be easily deleted.
So, the question now is: why are these files created with the readonly attribute?
FYI - files in my temp folder created by other apps do not have the readonly attribute.
Any thoughts?
Thanks - lloyd
