sed leaving temporary files behind

Hi,I'm using gnu win32 ver 4.2.1 of sed.When using -i option, sed always leaves 
behind temporary files named sed* in the directory where it's being called. 
(ie. NOT in the directory where the edited file resides.)Each successful run 
leaves 1 temp file behind.
When I supply a file extension using -itmp, the expected file backup gets 
created in the directory where the edited file resides. The temporary files are 
still left over in the execution directory.
>dir sed*
 Directory of C:\GitHub\merlin-etl\merlinDBScripts\dbChanges\sql\prod
File Not Found
>sed -i "s/ad/asdf/" \temp\1.csv
>dir sed*
 Directory of C:\GitHub\merlin-etl\merlinDBScripts\dbChanges\sql\prod
