Checking my message log, there are several errant futures symbols "loading" on startup. I've scanned through all my charts to be sure all of my chart drawings are using the current symbol of the data file. I've restarted and still these apparently attempt to load. One of which creates a data file, but it obviously isn't being used since I can delete that data file while SC chart is open and running. Those being used can not be deleted while SC is running.

How can I determine what is causing these bogus symbols to load? Is there a quick way to determine this?
