Thankyou so much for posting this! I'm having the exact same problem. "Overwrite existing cells" was checked in several power queries in different workbooks. One of the workbook was having a problem and now thanks to you I see that excel automatically unchecks it when I close the External Data Properties configuration popup. The other workbooks are fine.

Thanks for posting Mohami. I am not finding the overwrite option in Data->Queries & Connections->Properties. Could you show me where you are seeing it. Thanks Jacchi
