TM not updating and editor display issue

I am having problems with the displayed info, project settings and updating of TMs in Trados Studio 2015 (not clear if problems are related).

An example of the issue:

I am working in a particular project as Open for Review (the project contains 1 file, it is not opened as Single file translation but a project was made for it). No other files or projects are open in the Editor view but the one I am reviewing. However, the settings and TM of a different project are displayed. Please see explanation below:

 Moreover, my TMs do not seem to update themselves. I update them manually via batch tasks and have noticed several times that the translations were not in the TM. My colleagues do not have this problem. I admit that my issues are a bit vague and I'd be happy to try solutions or provide more information.

    Let me explain how Studio works: the project that appears in bold in the Projects list is your current project and this is why you see its name on top. This is not a bug, but a feature. This does not prevent you from having a file from another project open in the editor, which is your case. You probably double-clicked on the project name "Q16-00258 ..." after you had opened your file from the other project and this made this project the active one. So, there is nothing wrong with this.

    About the TM being updated: why do you think it does not get updated? The easiest way to check is to modify the content of a segment, confirm it, then move your cursor back into the segment and check if the TU shown in the "Translation Results" window shows the change you made. if it does, then your TM gets updated.
