How can I turn off the pop up for overwriting files in illustrator?

[Aaron38789306y4mn]

I work doing alot of repetative file creation an exporting. I've created an action to save both PDF's and SVG's out automatically but the thing that slows everyhting down in having to accept the 'replace file' pop up that comesup everytime, is there a way to turn off these pop ups? or even better way to get around having to click this replace button.

Thanks ❤️

Hi @Aaron38789306y4mn do you do any scripting? You'll be able to get around it by using a script. Some dialogs don't seem to be able to be bypassed directly, but can be avoided, eg. by checking-for, and removing, the duplicate file before exporting. As for actions, I'm not sure. @Kurt Gold might have an answer.

Hey! Thanks for the quick response! I unfortunately dont do any scripting however if it was something that would potentially be able to speed things up then id definitely look into it, can you give me any pointers as to where to start with it? If Kurt or anyone else has any pointers id very much appriciate it.
