Inventor 2026 / Vault Data Standard 2026: Save As behaving like Save Copy As

I recently noticed that when Vault Data Standard is enabled, using Inventor’s Save As creates a new file but leaves the original file open. The newly named file opens in a separate window, which makes it behave like Save Copy As rather than a normal Save As.

When I disable Data Standard, Save As works as it should. Inventor switches to the newly named file and only the new file remains open. I added debug logging to our customized Default.ps1. At both initialization and OnPostCloseDialog, the values are:

Create=True
Copy=False
SaveCopyAs=False
Edit=False

So Data Standard does not appear to think it is in Save Copy As mode.

I even updated our Data Standard customization to use the newer folder browser instead of the older breadcrumb logic, but that has not fixed it.

Has anyone else come across this issue? Are there any configuration files, command settings, or known 2026 changes I should check?

I'd like to add, I did remove my customization files and used the built in one as well and I'm seeing the same behavior of the Save As acting like a Save Copy As.
