How to stop Fusion 360 from creating a new version on STL export

Question

Everytime I export to STL in Fusion 360, a new Version (V1, V2, V3, V4, ...) of the file is created. But I would really like to use that feature to mark bigger changes instead of creating a new version everytime I change a minor detail to see how the Cura reacts to it.

For some reason, no new version gets created when I send the model to Cura via the tools tab. But then no new STL file gets created, but Fusion 360 opens a new instance of Cura instead. Even if Cura is already open.
That's not what I want. I want to overwrite the old STL file so Cura offers me to reload the STL file and I can keep working in the instance of Cura which is already open.

I already deactivated the checkbox to create a new version everytime I save the file. That settings works as expected

Not sure if this will solve your issue directly for you but when I save a STL/3MF from F360 I don't use the File/Export in 360.

Instead I just right click the body in the browser tree and save the STL/3MF directly from that menu. Select "save as mesh" This does not add any version number, and also the usage of cloud processing is not required so it's much faster.
