Description Antti Savolainen 2025-12-03 06:06:59 UTC 
SUMMARY
Sometimes you select a directory to check what is inside of it and then move back up to when you decide to save there. Because the directory you entered is still selected when moving up, pressing enter will not save the file. Instead it will take the selected directory and move you to it.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select a file for saving
2. Open a directory
3. Move one step up
4. Press Enter to save the file

OBSERVED RESULT
The directory will be entered again

EXPECTED RESULT
The file should get saved
