Printer printing wrong g code file

After many years of faithfully following my instructions my Prusa 2.5S is suddenly being rebellious. I designed a part this morning, sliced it with PrusaSlicer, and loaded it on my SD card. The printer recognizes the SD card, and my new g code appears at the top of the list of files. When I select this file to print, the printer starts printing a different file, one in the third place on the list. 

I have saved the file again over the original file. I have done that again after deleting several files from the SD card. I have tried several times to start this print, once even having the printer start the second file on the list. 

I am currently printing it from a new, otherwise blank, SD card, and that seems hopeful, but I wonder if there is a simpler fix.

RE: Printer printing wrong g code file

Same here. I'm sure I selected the top file, but once printing, the file that is being printed is a different one.

The file I wanted to print was already on the SD card, but overwritten with a newer one.

Prusa MK3.5S with latest firmware.

I am also finding the same problem as well. In the last few weeks this started occurring for 90% of the prints it is reading the third file on the SD card, not the first. I have an MK3S but I wonder if updating the PrusaSlicer to 2.8.1 on a Mac may have coincided with this bug?
