Why does V16 always save to the default folder when exporting? Why doesn't it remember my last export path?

V16 has deeply restructured the export path memory logic, upgrading from the previous "global last-time memory" to "independent memory following individual projects". This is to prevent media from being mistakenly exported to other clients' folders during multi-project parallel editing.

[Operation] ① Understand the new logic: For new projects, the first export will point to Filmora's system default Output folder, and will not automatically inherit the export path of your previous, different project; ② Bind an exclusive path: In the "Save to" option of the export panel, specify a target folder for the current project once. After completing the export and saving the project, this path will be permanently bound to the current .wfp project file; ③ Prevent cross-project mix-ups: When you open Project B, its export path will automatically revert to the location where Project B was last saved, and will absolutely not be interfered with by the export actions of Project A.

[Verification] Close and reopen the current project, click the export button again, and confirm that the "Save to" path still accurately points to the folder address exclusively set for this project.
