Saving as Copy instead of Overwriting: PS 2020 with macOS Catalina [locked]

Having an issue with the new update. Finally, I am seeing my extension name update when a new one is selected in the save as dialog box... however I am still having an issue with saving over original files. If I make changes to a file then try to save over the .png file it keeps saving as filename-copy.png. I am not able to unselect the "Save as a copy" box. Anyone else?

    Contacted Adobe support — said that it's a known issue and pointed me here:
    Photoshop: Saving copy not saving over jpg file

    Maybe it's more useful to write there?


    This bug introduced by Apple with macOS Catalina has been resolved with 22.4.

      Hi Courtney,

      Welcome to the Adobe Community!

      Could you please let us know the version of Photoshop and the Operating System you're working with?

      Have you tried updating Photoshop to the most recent version which is 20.0.7 via the Creative Cloud Desktop app and see if it helps?

       

      Regards,
      Sahil

      I am using Photoshop 20.0.7 with the macOS Catalina 10.15 - newest of both if I am not mistaken.

        I am having same issue. JUST updated to Catalina 10.15.6 and am running 21.2.3 Photoshop. Was working just fine with latest Ps, until I updated my Os.
