Export tab to compile, fails to warn of existing/matching filename

Premiere Pro 24.1.0 (build 85)

Windows 10 Pro (version 22H2)

Steps to reproduce:

1) Select Export tab to compile executable from current edit/project/sequence.

If file was previously created and still exists in the default location, it will overwrite that file without warning.

 

Previous versions of PP would add a "_n" suffix to the filename to differentiate/increment so no overwrite would occur.

 

I look forward to your suggestions.

The file already has been exported.

On second export No warning for overwriting or adding a suffix.

In my testing, mac & win, I can't get PPro to NOT complain about overwriting the existing file. Are you certain you're rendering to the same output directory?
