Environment

Novell Filr 1.1

Situation

Filr Desktop client attempts to upload some temporary Microsoft Office files. For example: WRD0001.tmp, WRL0001.tmp, WRD0002.tmp, etc. It was reported that this occurs when MS Word was closed without first saving the file (using ALT-F4).

Resolution

A fix for this issue is available in the Filr 1.1 Hot Patch 2, available via the Novell Patch Finder. With the fix in place, the temporary Microsoft Office files will be ignored.
