    For some reason, when using Build & Run (ctrl-B) on Windows for an Android build, the build fails because the file already exists. In previous versions, the file would simply be overwritten, as expected. Is this by design? If so, I would consider it a regression.

    Edit: unfortunately you can't edit thread titles...

    I think there's a bug reported for this issue, but just in case, when you say - file already exists, are you talking about apk or aab?

    Please backport to 2021.3, this is a major productivity issue for many.
