My computer keep on creating random .TMP on my desktop??

You have just created a way to hide the problem.....not get rid of it.  The problem I run in to is this prevents the application from saving the file again.  For example if I create an image with photoshop, it then creates the .tmp file for it while saving the file, but then doesn't remove it when its done.....then I can't save again.  I've been using photoshop and other programs like it since 2000.  Not since windows 8 have I had this problem with .tmp files.

Hi Kenny,

Thank you for posting the issue on the Microsoft Community Forums.

From the issue description I understand that the computer is creating the .tmp (temporary) files on the desktop.

To assist you better I would appreciate if you could answer the following question:

Have you made any changes to the hardware or software on the computer prior to the issue?

Temporary (.tmp) files are automatically created when you run an applications and I think you are saving temporary files to the desktop. You should not worry about the tmp files being created, you just need to specify on the computer that you do not want to see them - whether they are there or not. These files are needed for the applications to run properly and should not be deleted unless you know what you are deleting.

Follow the steps and check if it helps,

a)      Press Windows Key + W on the keyboard.

b)      Type Folder Options and click on it.

c)       Click on View tab.

d) Click on “Don't show hidden files, folders and drives”.

e) Click on Hide protected operating system files (Recommended).

f) Click on Apply and Ok button.

Method 2: Scan your computer for computer viruses,

R un a full scan using MSS (Microsoft Safety Scanner) to make sure that the Computer is virus free. Provide disclaimer.

A fast way to check for viruses is to use an online scanner, such as the Microsoft Safety Scanner. The scanner is a free online service that helps you identify and remove viruses, clean up your hard disk, and generally improve your computer's performance.

To run the Microsoft Safety Scanner:

a)      Go to the Microsoft Safety Scanner webpage to download the scanner.

b)      Click Download Now, and then follow the instructions on the screen.

Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner expires 10 days after being downloaded. To rerun a scan with the latest anti-malware definitions, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

Important: While performing scan on the hard drive, if any bad sectors are found on the hard drive when scanning tries to repair that sector if any data available on that might be lost.
