Not Saving My Place?

This problem is a bit hard to describe but I'll try my best. Whenever I reopen scrivener, it's always on the same document from weeks ago as if I saved there. It doesn't matter what document I was working on before closing the program; it just seems to pick something from a while back and stay there.

This also comes with the problem that it's not saving the current word count of documents. So, for example, I add 1,000 words to a 5,000 word document and close Scrivener. When I open it up again, it shows 5000 until I type something. This wouldn't be a problem except that it counts that 1,000 as part of my word count for the day. For some reason?

The best way I can describe this is that Scrivener is just not saving the current state of the project fully. All of my work remains, but little things like this are wrong. Is there a setting I'm missing? Or at least is anyone else seeing this problem? It happened on my old laptop as well.
