Excel Office 365 - Saving file over network share overwriting with a different filename

User is working over a Network Share and when she saves, sometimes it will overwrite with a different filename that's already on the share. User can cancel the overwrite but sometimes it's too quick to cancel and you lose the overwritten files name.

Example:

Test.xlsx (hit save)

Test1.xlsx (in that same folder)

When Test.xlsx is saving, it changes the filename to Test1.xlsx and overwrites the file with the info from Test.xlsx. Has happened quite a few times but not consistently with every save.
