P: Export As not asking to overwrite file if file name doesn't include extension

Hi, I'm running the latest version of Photoshop 2022.  When I do an Quick Export to PNG and I manually type in the filename that already exists, it doesn't prompt me to overwrite, it just overwrites it.  However if I double click on the file name in the file window it will prompt me to overwrite.  I'm running Windows 10 20H2.  Not sure if anyone else is having this issue, but I just wanted to let you know.

 

Thanks - Zack

I just tested it again to make sure I wasn't losing my mind lol. If you
enter the complete filename it prompts to overwrite but if you enter the
filename without the extension it doesn't.
