I've read the threads about mpx files and seem to be confused.
After updating to 1498 1051 I've noticed that the mpx are not going away. So first, I checked the shortcut start in path. It is set to C:\a5v5\rcl co\ and the directory setting is Windows temp. I started my app, click on a button which prompts for a record, selected a record and exited the program. Ran a search for mpx files and found two in the same path as the start in. Next I created a folder called a5mpx and set the directory private path to it. Deleted all mpx files. Restarted A5 selected a record as above and exited the program. Did another search and found 2 mpx files. One in the same path as shown in the start in (a5v5\rcl co and one in the folder a5mpx). I changed the start in to be the same as the private path, deleted the mpx files. Run the program again. This time I find 2 mpx files in the a5mpx folder. Not knowing what to do I went back to my orignal settings and reinstalled patch 1490 1047. No mpx saved anywhere. This is true for all builds prior to 1047. But begining with 1498 1050 the mpx files are saved to the path as shown in the start in.
I this point (4 hours of tinkering) the results are the same and I am confused. As a last resort I reinstalled build 1490 1047 and have had no more mpx files saved. The end result for me is not to install any builds beyond this.
Anyway my question is, has anyone else found a soultion other than deleting them manually? My opinion is this an Apha bug starting with build 1498 1050 since all earlier builds delete the mpx's when I exit.
Hope this all makes since.
