Photoshop adds copy to file names

Anyone else notice that photoshop is adding copy to the end of file names? I can't get it to save the file as I want. What's up with this? It's wasting time to either edit html to match file name or go to folder and change file name after saving.  Kind of BS isn't it?

 

Example: File_name.psd save as jpeg = File_name copy.jpg

    If you have layers or an unsupported bit depth, this is correct behavior.

    It is also working OK for me:

     

     

    However, my unknown OS version may be different to your unknown OS version and or unknown platform.

    Do you have the "Save as copy" checkbox unchecked? I don't seem to have an issue with this unless, I'm actually saving a file of the type with the same name.

    Oh yes, I can 'save as'.

    I can fully use the software because I just ignore the update request ticking the option, "remind me later"
