These are automatically created by Smoke, and are useful if you have a catastrophic project corruption, as you can use them to restore your media library information. However, project corruption is very rare in Smoke. \u00a0I have had to fix a <strong>corrupt Smoke project library<\/strong> about 4 times in 8 years, under 40 hours a week heavy use.<\/p>\n<p>The .000 files are the current used file.
