Default Excel saves as a duplicate instead of updating

Just as my subject suggests, instead of asking me if I want to replace the
original file when saving, excel is simply creating a file with a duplicate
name, with a serialized number. It is really confusing because if I make a
change to an incoming document (received numerous times a day) and
subsequently save it to my pre-existing folder established specifically for
that document, then go back to reference said document, there are numerous
copies, all with different content, none with a complete data set.
How do I get excel to prompt to overwright?
