Hmm.. This could be part of the issue.  %f probably means "filename".  So
if you click a file it'll open that one directly and not the main file.

AND... here we have what could be part of your issue.  This is a backup
file.  Specifically, this is a backup file that was generated on May 18,
2019 (at 8:03 am).  So at SOME point you started working from a year-old
backup file.  It's unclear when that happened.  But you have most likely
forked your data.
