Hey Guys,
Since the update if you're getting a .c2PAWS file added when trying to 'Save as' JPG from a PSD file the fix that worked for me was Edit-Preferences-History & Content Credentials-None for both.
Save a JPG and it should not produce a .c2PAWS file then go back and turn both back to what you wish and it should still be fixed and not be making the additional .c2PAWS file.
Hope this helps whoever has the same issue 🙂

    This is how I have file handling set up also. 

    When I spoke with support he mentioned it has something to do with Ai and the Beta version so for now it was to find a work around, I'm sure they will fix the issue. Hope this helps 🙂

      Yes 100% they can be deleted. 
      I have just checked after a reboot and I still dont have any .c2PAWS files being created with them checked on.
      You could uncheck, open the Run Command type %temp% hit enter - delete temp files. Then, restart your PC open Photoshop and see if its fixed before turning back on. 
      Hope this helps because it's a really annoying thing having your working folder filled with empty temp files.
