Hello there, @DennyB.

 

Allow me to step in and provide some information about the temporary file.

 

When running a backup file automatically, it'll always create a temporary file. To complete the process, you'll just need to wait until the temporary file will be converted into QBBackupTemp folder.

 

The purpose of the QBBackupTemp folder is to hold an area for QuickBooks file components during the QuickBooks Backup (.QBB) file preparation process. Once the backup is completed, this temporary folder should get deleted automatically.

 

For more information about running backup files, you can read these articles for your reference:
