When I open JSON, and then beautify it, then minify it and try to save it as it is (minified), it does not save the minified version but saves the beautified one.
I reverted to the previous version.
Cannot save minified JSON in Build 4180

Can you be more specific as to the plugins you’re using and what you mean by “does not save”?

Well, as ST doesn’t manipulate content itself, when saving, it seems a plugin is involved which may suffer from a bug itself or behaves differently for some other reason.
We recently found “Pretty JSON” to suffer from a design bug, which caused trouble with auto-validation and auto-prettify on save. Maybe you suffer from something like that, too?

Yes, that could be it. I have Pretty JSON installed.
Sublime saves the file, there is no problem with saving. But, if I minify the JSON file with Pretty JSON and try to save it in Sublime, the JSON on screen reverts to the unminifed version and Sublime saves it like that, unminified.

I just saw that there is an update of Pretty JSON from yesterday. I upgraded Pretty JSON with that version and tried Sublime 4180 again, but the same thing still happens.

Very likely you are suffering from Pretty JSON now correctly prettifying JSON file on save 
This didn’t work before due to a design fault.
The plugin prettifies JSON by default (see "pretty_on_save": true), when saving files.
I haven’t found a minify_on_save setting though.

So now Pretty JSON actually works correctly? 
I added "pretty_on_save": false and everything is back like it was.
Thanks!
