LR5.3 xmp files suddenly appearing


today when exploring options renaming in library mode in order keep development settings images have. suddenly, on hard drive saw entire photo folder filled xmp files!   no xmp files visible before , have checked catalog settings make sure writing xmp files not checked.

 

i don't use separate xmp files - find confusing.

 

is there way merge xmp files their  associated photo file?  can delete them without loosing develop  settings , key words?

 

i have used lightroom since v2 , on v5.3.  have been  upgrading regularly , working until today.

 

any gratefully received.

the explanation photos selected did ctrl+s. or menu item save metadata file. xmps can deleted because data in catalog.
