<p>Hi Dave,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>indeed, temporary layers are only .. well .. temporary.<br>
There are two ways to make them permanent (afaik):<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>a) Install the temporary layer saver plugin. This will save those layers within the project file<br>
b) Don't know if this option already exists in 3.4, but in the context menu of a temporary layer, there should be the option "Make permanent ...", so you can save it to disk. If it is not present in 3.4, update to 3.10 LTR or to the latest 3.12<br>
