Asterisk doesnt go when saving

When I save my project/scene, unity behaves as if i didn't save it? the asterisk is still there and never goes even tho it does save the project/scene.

Im running unity 3.4.1

I didn't think anything of it until now, every time i save a script, instead of instantly overwriting it asks what i want to save it as - not a big problem but its slowing down progress >.<


any help would be great

 

I know this thread is nearly 10 years old, but having the same issue. Does anybody know, how to solve it?

 

Wow, time flies - I can't remember why this was happening back then, but now, typically if you're seeing this and you don't know the cause, it's probably something you've grabbed off the asset store making changes to your scene in edit mode (asset store editor tools etc). Checkout what editor scripts you have in your project, and see if any of your MonoBehaviours have the [ExecuteInEditMode] attribute.
