Closing of your Chart will remove the temporarily  -in that Chart's Data Files working folder-
present (access prohibited) 4x protection files:
~msfl.inx
~msfl.lck
~msfl.sec
~msfl.usr

Whilst a Chart is Open you cannot remove these files since they are "in use by the current user".
Using MSKPro instead, is a solution.
Closing of and after the updates re-Open-ing of your Chart, is the Program's only direct solution. 
Using other workarounds(i.e. OLEing via Excel or switching between 2 seperatly maintained
Charts/Data Files) can be other indirect solutions.
