Esxi 4.1 Datastore keeps creating _ folders

Ok I'm totally going crazy and I'm at my wits end here!  lol

 

I moved my Datastore from a old server to a new server. I recreated the Virtual Machine and attached it back to the correct datastore folder. Now for some reason Esxi has grown a brain and decided it wants to start creating folders on it on. So for example

 

Virtual Machine:  Windows7

 

I browse the datastore and this is what folders I see:

 

Windows7

Windows7_1

Windows7_2

 

Inside the Windows7 Folder I have these extensions:

 

Windows7.vmx

Windows7.vmdk

couple Windows7.log files

Windows7.nvram

Windows7_1.vmdk

Windows7.vmxf

Windows7.vmsd

 

Inside the _1 Folder I have this:

 

Windows7.vmx

vmware.log

Windows7_1.nvram

Windows7_1.vmxf

Windows7_1.vmsd

 

Inside the _2 Folder I have this:

 

Windows7.vmx

vmware.log

Windows7_2.nvram

Windows7_2.vmxf

Windows7_2.vmsd

Windows7_2.vswp < This is 10gig

 

 

I've tried twice as you can tell.. This is driving me crazy!

 

If anyone can tell me how to fix this that would be Great! I just want the _ folders Gone! and everything to be back to normal.

 

Thanks You.
