Issue: Action don't save file in same folder

  • Photoshop version: Adobe Photoshop 2022 24.0.0
  • OS: Win 10


Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open any image
  2. Write an action with save:
  3. "Window" - "Actions" - opens Actions in left panel
  4. Press in Actions left panel symbol "+" (Add new action)
  5. Give some name to new action. Chose  "File" in top panel, then "save" or "save as" and save file in the SAME FOLDER.
  6. Stop writing an action by pressing "square" symbol in Actions panel
  7. Check "Open dialog window" in front of name of this action (it helps to see immideatly that action don't work correctly))
  8. Open another file from another location
  9. Press "play" in Actions panel to apply this action

 

Expected result: Action shows folder of current file and saves automatically in there.
Actual result: Action shows folder, in which was saved previous file, not the folder of current file store. And more - if the previos file was deleted, it change the name of file to name of last folder.

For example: C:\February\item580\Черный\ph-0.jpg

If "ph-0.jpg" is deleted, save action will name file "Черный.jpg"

 

After renewig way of saving files instead "Save as" I can't save in same folder via Action, no matter which preferences I choose. If I save file manually, it works properly. But Action shows me folder, in which was saved previous file, not the folder of current file store.

In old version PS 2020 all my Actions work properly. All saving preferenses "Legacy" are checked.

Please don't advise me to use Scripts like Image Processor or Automate Batch Process, I have complicated system of folders and need to save files carefully to same folder. What is wrong with saving via Action? Can it be because of translated Photoshop or different system language?
