I added this line due to a similar problem. My guess is that using 'update' after the name change will fix the problem.

Thanks. That did it.

Whoops, no it didn't. Either it did it only once or I thought it did that once. Regardless, now it isn't doing it.

What happens if you close, then open the folder window after running the script?

The temporary items folder is an invisible folder.
