When I would like to open chartbook by "open chartbook", I can see there is double files for every file. [Chartbook name].Backup2109.Cht and [Chartbook name].Cht.

I would like to see only one file and no copies. How can I disable this backup files creation ?

Those particular backups were for special releases where it would not be possible to go back to an earlier version using the same chartbook. Therefore those backups were created, just in case you needed to go back to an earlier version.

We recommend keeping them, but if you really want to get rid of them, then just delete the files. Or you can move them to another directory where they will not bother you when you open a Chartbook, but will still be available in case you need them.
