In Photoshop 2024, why action save location always defaults to the previous folder?

In Photoshop 2024, I'm experiencing an issue with the "Save As" location in Actions. When I double-click the save step in the Action to change the folder to the current location, it still defaults to the previous folder I used earlier. I’m unable to update or change the save location by double-clicking the step.

Please take a look at the attached video and help me resolve this issue: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZrFse_HUDyViQmOezMKIpq1wfgq5ZWhc/view?usp=sharing

I'm unable to replicate the issue on my end. The "Save" step (recorded from "Save As" menu item) updates its properties when double-clicking. It then opens the same location for saving when running the action.

Thank you for your asistant:)
Actually, it's little bit time consuming to detect diffrent diffrent folder evertime, we have to work on lots of folder in a day to make action. Before Photoshop 2024 it was availble to show exact same location which files are right now open in Photoshop by double click on action save location

If you need to save to a location relative to the currently active file’s location you might be better off automating that with a Script instead of using Actions.
