Not sure if this person is being deliberately vague/obtuse, but it's unclear if this affects you if you save each screenshot as a new file, or only if you do the strange "overwrite existing file" thing the OP did.


Overwriting existing file is strange now? This is just victim-blaming for the incompetence of software engineers. As a user there's nothing wrong with overwriting an existing file.


Calling something unusual behavior, which is unusual, is "victim blaming"? Stop tilting at windmills.


They're not being vague - they're saying a specific issue named "acropalypse" applies.

Originally acropalypse was a specific library, but the bug itself is "saving data over an existing file does not replace the existing file".

> only if you do the strange "overwrite existing file" thing the OP did

Overwriting an existing file is literally the most common case: it's what happens when you say "save" instead of "save as...".
