Automatically created temporary file

Dear Sir,

Greetings!!

In my department we have a common folder across all the systems and we work on the file which get saved in LAN only so it can be accessed from any desktop/laptop.

Though we have been working for long through that LAN but since last week automatically lot of temporary files are created into that folder.

I am unable to figure out this.

Appreciate your help.
 
On the menu bar click
Tools > Options... > Save (tab)
Click the checkbox labelled "Disable Auto recovery."
OR in 2007 or later
Home Button
Excel Options / Save
"Disbale Autorecover"
 
Dear Sir,

Appreciate your help. I knew about that option. But I can't do so as it is important for me to keep this option active.
My concern is we have been facing this problem since last week only though we have been working for long and on the top of it the auto recovery option was still active throughout.
 
You may try this solution.
1.Press ‘Windows key + R’ and type ‘excel /safe’ without quotes and click ok.
2.Excel will open in safe mode.
3.Click on the Office button and open a saved excel sheet.
4.Save it in another location.
5.Check for temp file in that location.
If there is no temp file, then the issue is caused by Add-Ins. Try disabling the add-ins.
Follow the link and disable add-ins from excel.
