weird files on home directory

[Disil]

There are some weird files on my home folder. When I delete it, it says the file not exist (sometimes it say could not delete files). I also try to remove the file in konsole, even using the -rf option but still, the file are there. (im on ext4 btw). And then I opened one of the file in kate, typing random gibberish innit, and save it. Then i can delete the file permanently

But on the next boot the file appeared again.

Here is output of ls -l

**disil@disil-a314-35**:~$ ls -l

Do you dual boot your system with another OS? Maybe a PE version of Windows?

[Disil]

nope, in fact I never boot to a USB ever since I installed Spirallinux. It gradually accumulates (the weird files)

[forsakensingularity]

Honestly, unless you have a misconfigured ssl layer to the file system it maybe remanents from an older OS that was on the drive before. Years ago I had very strange password files I could not delete so I ended up reformating the drive changing the partition type to Mac/sunos then reformatting again as GPT and it hasnt hicupped yet. My drives are all over 5 years old.

But I'm on a cMP 5,1 TriBooting Spiral, Tiny11 and MacOS
