Hi! I found a solution:

Now Its gone:

Cheers!

Seems your plugin doesn't work anymore.

I suspect the reason it's not working is because you don't have the wmctrl prerequisite installed.

sudo apt install wmctrl should resolve your issues.

Confirmed NOT working on Mac OSX 10.15.7 (see edit)

1. first you need wmctrl. I did brew install wmctrl and it installed over a HUNDRED dependencies, but it worked. If you dont have brew then just know its trivial to install, google it.
2. follow instructions in the post by cardaba commented on Sep 15, 2017
3. View the console to make sure it didn't throw any errors. Select sublime text -> View -> Show Console
4. Save a document and look for errors in the console

EDIT: This is extremely flaky and does not work most of the time. Despite installing wmctrl, I still get errors regarding ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''

does this plugin still work in sublime text build 4107?

@aliazhar-id not working I'm on macOS, if you get any solution please help

@SudhanshuBlaze sorry I don't know, now I've moved to visual studio code.

As others said, there is a code that prevents the pop up to show, but also prevents any pop up to show (tried to delete a folder, i couldn't because it was always closing). It was the code here that closes everything and i can't do anything

Thanks egel, but at the moment it's working in Linux - maybe because of this error:

killer.py", line 17, in seek_n_close sublimePid = int(cl("""wmctrl -lp | grep "%s" | awk '{print $3}'""" % sublimeMainWindowTitle).decode()) ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '741430\n741430'

I'm having the same error like @kassbohm had, have anybody figured out yet?

 line 17, in seek_n_close
    sublimePid = int(cl("""wmctrl -lp | grep "%s" | awk '{print $3}'""" % sublimeMainWindowTitle).decode())
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''

Here is a working windows version: it works by closing the dialog box the moment it appears. its instant more or less, I never see the box anymore.

Windowkill.py

`import sublime_plugin
import ctypes
import time

TARGET_CLASS_NAME = "#32770"

class DialogBoxKiller(sublime_plugin.EventListener):

def close_dialog_boxes(self):
    EnumWindowsProc = ctypes.WINFUNCTYPE(ctypes.c_bool, ctypes.POINTER(ctypes.c_int), ctypes.POINTER(ctypes.c_int))
    
    def get_window_class_name(hwnd):
        buff = ctypes.create_unicode_buffer(256)  # Assuming class name won't be longer than 256 characters
        ctypes.windll.user32.GetClassNameW(hwnd, buff, len(buff))
        return buff.value
    
    def enum_windows_callback(hwnd, lparam):
        class_name = get_window_class_name(hwnd)
        if class_name == TARGET_CLASS_NAME:
            ctypes.windll.user32.SendMessageW(hwnd, 0x0010, 0, 0)  # 0x0010 is WM_CLOSE
        return True

    ctypes.windll.user32.EnumWindows(EnumWindowsProc(enum_windows_callback), 0)
    
def on_pre_save_async(self, *args):
    time.sleep(0.1)  # Brief delay to ensure dialog has time to appear if it does
    self.close_dialog_boxes()

`

FYI this also works with SFTP.
