Problem

Symptoms: What is the WP{WP}.PFX File? Solutions: The WP{WP}.PFX file is a temporary prefix file that is usually stored in memory. If there is not enough memory the file is written to disk. It is deleted when the user exits the document. If the user is running WP on a network and does not have delete (or modify) rights in the current directory, the file will be left on disk.

This file may also appear where the .SET files are located if the user lacks modify rights in that directory. The access privileges the user needs to the .SET file directory for Novell version 3.x are listed below:
R- Read from File
W- Write to File
C- Create Subdirectories and Files
E- Erase Directory
M- Modify Directory
F- Scan for Files

For other networks, the basic rights needed are read, write, create, and delete (or erase). If the user does not have these rights, .PFX files will probably be created in the directory for the .SET files.
