For your information: .gcm files are not backup files. They are only storing 
visual state (which tabs were open, column widths, ...).

I do hope you are not saving your gnucash data files in the same directory as 
the .gcm files ? If so, on the first occasion you manage to open a data file, 
run a "Save As..." and store your data in a more common location, such as (a 
subdirectory of) your Documents/My Documents/etc directory. I recommend a 
subdirectory as gnucash creates its backup files right next to the data file.

Regards,
