"Save As..." behaving like "Save a Copy..."

Mac Catalina, Illustrator 2020. Anyone else experiencing this? Go to do a Save As and it saves a copy instead and keeps you in the original file? So annoying.

    Just updated to Version 26.0.1. "Save As..." once again behaving like "Save a copy..."

    I have the same problem, don't know how to stop it. Doesn't seem to be a setting, also seems to have started in 2020.

    "SAVE AS" does not work. It actually acts more like, "SAVE A COPY". It also refuses to save files as AI. The only way I can save my work is if I choose PDF or EPS. So many other small annoying glitches. When drawing a line, it acts like "snap to" is enabled.
