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.

          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.
