Duplication of M-files in my matlab directory
Show older comments
Sometimes, my m-files get duplicated in the directory after writing, saving and execution. The duplicated copy , however, has all the command buttons disabled and cannot run. Please, who has experienced this and what is the way out? I fear to delete them as I do not know what could be the impact

Do the files have the same name or is there a tilde (~) appended to the end of the file name (after the extension)? Or is the file extension asv (rather than m)?

Those files can (probably!) be deleted. Check the link I included in my previous comment.

It is probably the auto-save-files you see (as indicated by Geoff Hayes). There is an Autosave entry in the preferences menu.
