The above file was being used. I removed it from the piece of content it was being used for.
Does this mean that it will automatically be deleted at some point? If so, when?
I just ran cron and nothing happened.

Sudipto, you may have more luck in the CiviCRM forums for this as this looks like a CiviCRM error. Many people use Stripe in Backdrop without issue, albeit it can take a bit to get setup.
Getting Error after submitting event register form By using Stripe Payment Processor
Yes, that would be too much 'hacking' for me. I will stick with 'multiple values'
Expanding a field
Thank you Olaf, that is what I did. Only reason for putting it all in one 'value' was more tight display. But I will stick with this suggestion.

The cron job system_cron() will delete temporary files after the max time stipulated by a constant (6 hours)
Those six hours is the reason why temporary file aren't immediately deleted when cron tasks run. If then there are many temporary file to delete, a single run isn't sufficient to delete all the files.
