Auto Save files are stored in the wrong folder when opening more than one project

Premiere Pro 25.4.0 on Win11.

Today I discovered that my recent auto save files got stored in the wrong place. As long as just one project is opened, everything seems to be OK. But if you open a second project from a different folder, Premiere Pro starts putting the auto save files from the first project in the second project's folder. Even after closing the second project, premiere continues to store in that wrong folder.

Luckily I was able to find the location of an auto safe file after my PC crashed. But it took me a while to figure out where they went. I sometimes open multiple projects to move clip preferences, effects or other things from one to another. Now I have auto save folders with mutliple states of up to four different projects.

What a mess!
