    I meet this bug twice. Both it was in the same steps.

    So in newly opened Unity Hub 3.2.0 I created new project "FlyingMan" in Unity 2021.3.5f1 LTS:

    I do some stuff, create materials, scripts and save scene. Then I need to take some parts from another project. Without closing "FlyingMan" I go to "File => Open Project..." and choose "MirrowSnake".

    But Unity shows error "Multiple instances cannot open the same project". You can see on screenshot, that Unity tries to Open "MirrowSnake", but tell, that he cant open "FlyingMan".

    Also, you can see, that at this moment "FlyingMan" is totally reseted. Not only scene was returned to initial state, but also materials and code were fully removed. Project looks like deleted and created from scratch.

    So is there way to stop Unity from clearing my projects? Is this problem known?

    Here is video, where you can see Unity deleting whole project:
