Artboards to files adds "--" in the end of filenames.

I have  a file with 70 artboards, each with a uniqe name.


For example:
Seasonality_2019_SE_AprMay_Robotgräsklippare_320x320_x2 

Seasonality_2019_SE_AprMay_Grillar_250x360  

Seasonality_2019_SE_AprMay_Utemöbler_980x240   

but when I export the artboards many comes out as:

Seasonality_2019_SE_AprMay_Robotgräsklippare_320x320_x2---.png

Seasonality_2019_SE_AprMay_Grillar_250x360-.png  

Seasonality_2019_SE_AprMay_Utemöbler_980x240--.png

And I wonder why there are lines added in the end of the filename.
It's no catastrophy but still annoying. Anyone experienced the same?

I just ran some updates to several adobe-apps just a few days ago, including Photoshop so it might just be a bug
(Bridge's file asociations got messed up after the updates as well and opens literally every file in AfterEffects now if you don't specifically rightclick and select "Open with....").

You seem to have a blank space in your layer name after the 640x320

Hi

For the After Effects issue see this thread

PSD Files in Bridge are opening in After Effects

Have you tried changing the association for Photoshop Document in Bridge > Preferences > File Type Associations?

Yes. And it says Photoshop is the primary app to open psd-files but it still opens in After Effects. Even other files were opened and imported in After Effects on double click. It wasn't until I uninstalled AfterEffects that the issue was resolved.

Can you provide the file for testing (merge the content of the artboards and fill it black if there are confidentiality issues)?
