No prompt appears to ask whether to overwrite and existing fil

Reported by richb...@gmail.com, Aug 10 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 10_0 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/602.1.43 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/10.0 Mobile/14A5322e Safari/602.1

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Save a file
2. Try to save the same file again
3. A prompt should appear asking whether or not to overwrite the file. (this is standard windows behavior). Instead, it appends a (1) to the file name. 

What is the expected behavior?
Chrome should ask if you want to overwrite the file.  If you don't, you can enter a new file name or cancel the download. 

What went wrong?
There is no option in the settings to have chrome follow standard windows behavior. It should NEVER assume that you want two copies of same file. This bug has been reported by other users in 2010 but was closed without being fixed in 2013. 

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 52.0.2743.116 m  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 7
Flash Version: 

Past reports to fix this have been ignored.
