SaveAs script not working after update

[jrohwer]

Hi everyone!

I use a SaveAs script (written by someone who I no longer work with), to save out images for work.

It should save a psd in a certain folder, saving over the psd of the same name that is already in that folder, then save a png in a separate folder, also saving over a png that is already in that folder.  I have been on Catalina and it has been working perfectly.

Since updating to Monterey, the script is getting stuck at line 6 (doc.saveAs(saveFile, saveOptions);) and then failing. 

I think the issue lies somewhere in the SaveAs (and perhaps the changes around SaveAs and Save As Copy?), because if I delete the image in the folder it's saving to, it works, but if it needs to save over that image, it doesn't work.

I have a pretty limited knowledge of scripting so any help would be greatly appreciated!! Script attached as plain text.

Have you tried enabling "Enable legacy save as" in Preferences/File Handling and restarting?

Thank you!! I had thought this would be the solve but not all users had it as an option - turns out we weren't all running the same version of photoshop (bit embarrassing that we didn't check that first hey!). Thanks for your help 🙂
