When importing .lyrx files to symbology, Pro does not remember the previously viewed folder. 
Change behaviour to remember last browsed folder for .lyrx per project.

Every time you select:

you get

Not negating the idea, but does the path history work for you?

Mmm. Not really.

Two things:

  1. The highlighted dropdown could be way off to the right if you increased the width of the dialog box for some reason. (= excessive/unneeded mouse movement required - small things add up)
  2. If folder is in the Project it takes the same number of clicks to find it in the Folder list and the location stays consistent between projects whereas location in History List varies. (e.g. come back a week later to update symbology and the lyrx folder may be out of view.)

It would be best to have consistent behaviour across tasks.

While you're in there fix it so you get locations inside Feature Datasets included as previously viewed.

This is kind of weird, there's a setting under Navigation (I think) that's like "Remember last browsing location" or something. I'm surprised that that setting doesn't apply to LYRX?
