Captions not updating (Premiere Pro 14.9 and earlier)

Hi, I'm working in the latest version of Premiere and set up some Open Captions as subtitles. When I duplicate a caption file in the project window and use a duplicate in the timeline, the captions don't update when I make ANY changes, such as writing a new text or adjust timings. After restarting Premiere, the captions update correctly. Seems some sort of cache issue. I have to set up a lot of captions, so restarting each time is not an option. Any tips? Thanks.

    Captions have been buggy for quite a while now. You can "vote" for Adobe to address this issue (and others) here:

        I am experiencing the same problem as Ren_Cloudsurfer.  If I place an Open Caption and a Closed Caption in a sequence ... my workflow is to have a whole transcript created from a session and cut together with the Open/Closed for different renderings for social media ... the updates I make to the Open Caption formatting or content does not change in the timeline preview.  If I reset PP, whatever changes were made are shown, but future changes don't apply.
