Hi MC,

Which project mode you're using, the Web Site mode or the Web Application
Project mode?

I'm not sure if it's related to the fact that the project is stored on a
removable media, but I'm not aware that Visual Studio will create .TMP
files in the solution folder. it will create intermediate files in the bin
and obj folders (if you're using Web Application Project) but there're no
.TMP files that will be created.

Do you mean that even you closed Visual Studio (and the built-in asp.net
development server), there's still files being locked? If this is the case,
there might be some other processes (such as indexing service) locked them.
You can try to use Process Explorer
(http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/ProcessExplorer.msp
x): menu "Find/Find Handle or DLL" to search "TMP" and it should list which
process is locking which file.

Do you have installed any add-in or packages in your Visual Studio? Maybe
some addin could be using those temp files?
