.tmp files appearing on desktop

Recently .tmp started appearing on my desktop. This never happened since I've been using UM (17.10 or earlier). Now on UM 22.10 and K 5.19.0
Can't figure what they are related to.
Does this happen to others ?

Hi UM22.04.1 On my system seems like when I backup my Firefox (108.0.1)(happened on earlier versions, think it also in 20.04) bookmarks to Desktop it leaves an undeletable .tmp file. Not sure why but it goes away if if I go to Caja / Desktop and Reload / Ctrl+R. Seems like Desktop is not refreshing. Sorry don't have answer as to why.

Just tried and yes the Ctrl+R did work
Maybe it happens when downloading a document to desktop
If a refresh issue, someone may want to look into it.
A bit weird anyways
Thanks

You can use F5 to refresh the Desktop. Easier than method I use. :grinning:
