I love that we can now start using Pro without saving the project first.  If I do end up saving the project I would have previously made a folder (to follow our request structure).

The problem is that this then creates a whole new folder system within the folder system that already exists.

The solution: Bring back the tick box that is currently available when you create a new project allowing you to choose if you want to create a new folder for this project.

Why not to consider saving the project as aprx file without the need to create a folder.

NO folder please. It's a small thing and a wish from the users for years... Thanks

THIS!!! So annoying and unnecessary! I have asked for help previously , but I guess this issue isn't going anywhere.

@NaicongLi, what's the current status of this? Is it still being actively discussed? The default settings for "Save As" should always have been a single aprx file.

Hi @BRENNEJM,

Under Consideration is the current and correct status for this idea. Please refer to the Idea Statuses doc to better understand the specific meaning of a status when in doubt. You can also see an abbreviated explanation for a status by hovering next to it:

That said, we have not been able to begin working on this. There are a couple other good related Pro ideas, which need to be considered together to provide a consistent user experience. We appreciate everyone’s input on this - we monitor ArcGIS Pro ideas closely and strive to incorporate a number of user ideas into every release. We just haven't been able to prioritize this yet into a release plan. If we get to that point, we will keep the community updated by moving this to In Product Plan.

Thank you.

Please prioritize. Things like this make using Pro a very frustrating and annoying experience.
