What is TPK and why did datalogging not stop?

I've been leaving my FlashPro attached to the car and have logged while taking few drives. I wasn't driving hard so I haven't been pulling the logs after every drive. The other day, I went for a drive and pressed the datalog button and the LEDs seemed to indicate is was not logging so I decided to pull the logs. Turns out the FlashPro was full. I did not go on that long of a drive. How did my datalog get full? In addition, what is this TPK file? I tried to download them but I had no luck as it stopped about 75% way through.

All the software and firmware was up to date when this occurred.

Remove the datalog files and let us know it it happens again. There's nothing in the software the creates a file with a TPK name.

Unfortunately, the data-logging failed to stop once again. I went to the store and hit the datalog button. When I got back, I pulled the FlashPro from the car and there was only one datalog. I kind of marked where I shut off my car in the picture below.

I noticed a revision of the FlashPro firmware so I updated. Consequently, I did not remove the FlashPro from the car so it _could_ be a soft-error. Therefore, my plan is to give it a go again with the new firmware and a re-flash. By the way, I am an engineer so if you'd like me to check anything, let me know.

I know some cars will keep the fan on when its hot for up to 30 minutes. I am not sure if the FK8 does that. I haven't noticed as I'm usually running to the next place with A/C.

Removing power, updating the firmware and calibration has seemed to resolve the issue. I am willing to caulk it up to a soft-error if Hondata is. For the audience, a soft-error is not a firmware/software bug.
