Bug Description
If any of .sch or .kicad_pcb are entitled anything other than a matching existing .pro file in identical directory a spurious .pro file is generated when running them. This might be deliberate and it seems it should reside in a menu configuration option to disable this functionality to permit users to modify different files.

To post a comment you must log in.
The normal way to use kicad is to have one project with all its files inside the project directory. Editing hierarchical sheets is then not done by opening them from the OS file browser but with the help of the hierarchical navigator.
Could you therefore explain how you use kicad and why it is necessary for your workflow to use the OS file browser to start editing files?
