Disabling creation of " mscz," file after Save
When I edit and Save a MuseScore document a backup file is created with extension "mscz," How can I turn off\disable that feature?

You can't.
And you don't want to, this backup is often useful if you accidentally overwrite your score, make an unintended save, or there is a crash. But also, this file should normally be hidden, so if you are seeing it, you must have enabled display of hidden files, meaning you can make them disappear from view by disabling that again.

Why not to change the ".mscz," with ".temp" or whatever (to avoid confussions)???
All my files are sync with google drive. But Gdrive struggle to sync mscz, They frequently cause sync error and I dunno why :/
