Default Why get multiple copies of file when try to delete

I have the same problem. But there seems to be no reply to Ged's question. If
there is one around please mail to me

Help - I have some word files saved in my C drive. When I delete them they
make copies. As I try to delete the originals and the copies more reappear.
Entitled Copy (2) of a copy of a copy of copy of (then original file name).
Or copy (3) of a copy etc. It's like a cancer the files just keep multiplying
as I try to delete them more and then more appear. The last time this
happened I had well over a hundred copies of just a few files in my C drive.
I kept deleting them and then for some unknown reason they finally deleted
after an hour or so of trying. This time they are multiplying even more and I
have copy (18) of one of the files.
