"filname.lyx~" is created when you save explicitly.

On the other hand “#<filename>.lyx#” is created automatically (on a
periodic basis when you are editing your file. If there is a crash you
have a check point that is more recent than the last save.
If all goes well I would expect that those files to be erased when LyX
ends normally.
