Default Outlook Contacts Duplicate

When entering new info for contacts and saving it in outlook, sometimes a box
comes up saying that I have made changes and what do I want to do with those
changes. Other times, it just duplicates the contacts. My question is why is
that box not coming up all the time?

Thanks for help!

Default Outlook Contacts Duplicate

From the Outlook help file (search term: "duplicate contacts"):

"If you save a contact with the same name or e-mail name as one that
already exists in your Contacts folder, Microsoft Office Outlook displays a
dialog box with options to either add the duplicate contact as a new
contact or update the existing contact with the new information from the
duplicate contact."
