One could put a script, batch file, or a link thereto in one's startup
folder that will run on Windows' boot.  The script/batch file would be
written to clean out the tmp files.  Google << windows startup folder >>.
If all processes, regardless of whether they start with the same
shell/subshell, will share the same temp file, one could create the file
upon boot using the same script.

Also, one could make the script that creates the temp file (e.g.,
.bashrc) check the file or an environmental variable so that a subshell
doesn't create a new temp file, if that's how you want it.
