It would be useful to know where your source .ly file is, because
Frescobaldi appears to be using your C:/Users/Owner/AppData folder for
the temporary files.
If you change the \BookOutputName to the same folder as your source .ly
file, or a subfolder of that folder, you should find the output pdf
files there.
For example, if you change the bookOutputName to "C:/Output/" then both
of the lines:
\bookOutputName
"C:/Users/Owner/AppData/Local/Temp/frescobaldi-00ou83l6/tmp2xammvvc/Output/"
become
\bookOutputName "C:/Output/"
The 2 pdf files should then be in C:/Output (or on Windows C:\Output).
Alternatively, try outputting to the same folder as your source .ly file.

Good Morning Stu McKenzie,
I am using frecobaldi v3.3.0 & lilypond v2.25.18, The two files
created are in the same folder of my source lily file. However I
cannot find the temp - it is not important as long as I find the two
pdf created.
tkQ,
ming (lyndon) tsang.

Hi lilyponders,
the following code generates two files according to the log.
%%%
\paper {
output-filename = "my_special_output"
}
\book {
\paper {
output-suffix = "menuetto"
}
\score { \relative { c''4 d e f } }
}
\book {
\paper {
output-suffix = "scherzo"
}
\score { \relative { f''4 e d c } }

and the log as below:

You may still use Frescobaldi with the following changes (I used
LilyPond version 2.24.0):
% \version "2.24.0"
% Replace version string with the version in use.
%{
Comment out the first paper block
\paper {
output-filename = "my_special_output"
}
%}
\book {
\paper {
\bookOutputName
"C:/Users/Owner/AppData/Local/Temp/frescobaldi-00ou83l6/tmp2xammvvc/Output/"
output-suffix = "menuetto"
}
\score { \relative { c''4 d e f } }
}
\book {
\paper {
\bookOutputName
"C:/Users/Owner/AppData/Local/Temp/frescobaldi-00ou83l6/tmp2xammvvc/Output/"
output-suffix = "scherzo"
}
\score { \relative { f''4 e d c } }
}
This should output to a subfolder of the original LilyPond source
file.
The output may be directed to any folder that you choose, by
changing the bookOutputName.
