P: Saving copy not saving over jpg file

Updated to macOS Catalina 10.15.7 and Photoshop 22.0.0 and the problem persists. Good grief. Will this ever be address, or are we forever trapped in this file renaming hell?

You're right! That works the same and without doing the artboard thing, (I was using artboards at the time which is why it occurred to me). I hadn't seen the other post. It's a shame the thread has got so long as the original problem still isn't fixed. Thanks.

This is actually the same thing as "Export As..." under the File menu > Export (and no need to create Artboard at all). Someone in the forum already suggested that.

I have the same problem. Mac OS 10.15.7 Photoshop V 22.0.0

Despite saying yes to overwrite existing jpg it still saves a copy. And as everyone has said you then have to navigate to files and delete/rename. It causes issues with potentially sending an old version to clients etc.

One work around I've used (and we shouldn't using work arounds anyway!) make your layered files an artboard. The layers still work the same. Then you can export the artboard as a jpg from the layer palette options instead. When you come back to make changes and export again to jpg, it will save over the previous version. You just have to make sure you name your artboard with the desired file name in the first place (so it's not just 'artboard 1'. Less annoying than renaming files etc.

Hello.
We are experiencing an issue with the latest version of PhotoShop in 2020 regarding overwrite saving.
For example, when I try to overwrite a file in "png" format, it is duplicated.
This issue has not been fixed for several months.
Is there any way to fix the problem?

I'm Japanese and I'm sorry for my poor English.

OS: macOS Catalina
Model: Mac mini (2018)
Memory: 16 GB RAM
PhotoShop version: 21.2.4

Right. That's why this discussion is in the Adobe forum and not the Apple forum.

By the way, not once has Adobe contacted me to ask what bug I'm talking about.

I would argue the issue is with Adobe not testing on the latest OS. Surely Apple is not expected to make sure premium 3rd-party software is bug-free. This is akin to victim blaming. LOL
