Actions: Uses the same filename over and over again

I need help.

Here is my scenario.

From pdf files with multiple pages, I open it in PS, make some adjustments then use a custom action that will save it in JPEG. It will be saved like "givenfilename-page1.jpg", "givenfilename-page2.jpg" and so on. Everything is doing well until I updated my PS. Now, when I use the same action or even when I make another, It always saves in the same filename and overwrites the prvious files, ending up with just 1 jpeg file.

Any idea on this?

 

Thanks

Try if checking 'Legacy Save as' in the preferences solves the problem. Or uncheck it if it is already checked.
