Every Monday morning I get a spreadsheet from one of my distributors that lists all items I have on pre and back order. I download that file, and then do my spreadsheet sorting. However, since I started to use the ProtonMail app on MacOS (vs in Safari) when I download the file, it gives an error that there is already a file by that name. When I save with Safari it adds a number to make it unique. I am unsure if this is a MacOS issue, or a ProtonMail app issue.

    it is not really either app or OS issue, it is more of a workflow data management queation/preference. Some places always want overwrite so you don’t duplicate data

      Safari does it fine. I believe Firefox does too (it did on windows). It should at least offer the option to append.

        Hmm, is there an alternate mouse option of save as?

          Even if there is that is not going to automatically give a version number. It is going to give the same option as save, which allows me to manually rename the file.
