No Longer Receiving Alert During Backup asking if I want to overwrite existing backup

I use to receive an alert during a manual backup that asked if I want to overwrite an existing backup when I use the same name. I nolonger receive those alerts it simply overwrites the existing backup. Has this feature been removed? If not how can I reenable this feature?

Thank you

    On the backup popup, did you tell Q to add the date to the file's name?  If so, you would only get the overwrite question if you made two backups on the same date.

    Splasher, thanks for the suggestion. I did append the date to my file name but I wasn’t getting the alert even on multiple saves on the same day. Thanks for your suggestion.
