1. Open any TAR.GZ large (not very small, to have some time while TC is busy).
2. Go into this archive (first into GZ, then into the inner TAR).
3. Select the contents, press F5 to unpack it.
4. While unpacking is going, press the "Background" button and go out of the both archive levels.
5. When unpacking is finished, the intermediate TAR is still present in %TEMP%\_tc and not removed even when TC is closed.
This also happens with other archive types (which support background unpacking, of course), not only TAR+GZ. At least, RAR-inside-ZIP produced the same result.

Unfortunately you will have to live with that problem. Main TC doesn't know about what files are used by background threads. Therefore when you close the inner archive in main TC, the temporary file will be removed. If it's locked by something else, it will remain in temp.
