Shut Off "Always Create Backup" (xlk) feature on Export to XLSX

M

Seems that we are running into a problem with the "Always Create Backup"
feature of Excel being set on files exported from Access database. Not sure
why this is all of a sudden becoming a problem, is this a function of the PC
which creates the file, or opens the file first?

If it is in the creation, is there a setting within Access to disable that
feature for the XLSX files that we create on export?

If it is in the opening, what do we need to tell people how to configure
their PCs and Excel for?

Thank you for your time and assistance.
