Pop-up teamwork message to send changes when opening up files

Hi, last week I noticed something odd when opening up some of our Teamwork files. We have a local BimCloud Server at the office, it runs on Bimcloud basic.  

For some reason, it now has started SOMETIMES showing the following message when simply opening up a Teamwork file:

So it's asking us to send any unsent changes when opening up a Teamwork file. So you either tell it to send the changes or cancel. If you hit cancel nothing seems to happen, it doesn't close the file or anything weird. And if you hit Send Changes then it seems to send changes but it's not something that I can confirm is happening or not.

 

This does not seem to be a problem, it just seems odd that it started happening just recently, and we have not applied any Archicad or BimCloud updates to think that this behaviour is associated to any specific updates.

 

Is anyone else getting this?

My theory with this is that it is addon data. 

I just yesterday deployed updated CI TOOLS add-ons to my office. And I know the these add-ons embed the latest version number of the addon in to the addon data of the file.

 

So when you first open a teamwork after installing a new addon it will want to push any new addon data to the teamwork file as the first thing it does. 

 

That my theory at least. 

Does it continue to popup on the same teamwork file and for other users?
