Power Automate Flows Turning On when Off

I was recently working with a client on a project where we had to disable some of our flows from running to validate some data scenarios.

Turn Flows Off, they turn off, all good.

Then we decided to investigate what the problem might be so we opened up the flow and clicked on “edit”.

Now, I’m still not completely sold on the new designer and toggle between both because I can still find things easier in the old designer while we are in this middle world.

From here I switched to the Old Designer

And this is where things got weird, because as soon as I did this – sometimes you are presented with the “Save and Switch” or “Don’t Save and Switch” option, but when I do this switch the inexplicable happens.

My Flow now Turned back On???

I can’t imagine why this would be happening and I have validated the scenario a few times. It has caused me a bit of grief as I try to isolate why this is happening.

Best I can tell is it has something to do with the “Save and Switch” button, but definitely something to look out for.
