Local Backup Filename

QB 2022

I changed my company name. Nothing else has changed, just the company name. I changed it in the Company Information module. Everything is fine EXCEPT when I do a backup. I have set a backup folder, and that works fine, but the program wants to use my old company name every time in the backup. the old filename was "company name" (date). Now it is 123456 LTD (date). In the last step before the backup is performed, it gives me the opportunity to change the filename from the old one to the new one, but why should I have to do that? There must be a way to choose the backup filename so that it is done automatically. Advice? Thanks!
