Hi!

I don't actually know what component of emacs are generating these
files. I have some of these, too, and I don't use desktop-save. 

However, what are you doing inside the .emacs.d directory? As I
understand it, this is a directory where emacs and emacs extensions
can put their files, not a directory where you should keep your
configuration or other elisp files. Move your stuff to .elisp,
.emacs-lisp.d, whatever, and be happy again. 8-)

HTH, 

Anselm
