When saving: The library has been modified by another program - triggered by adding and removing new group #9064

Confirmed bugs or reports that are very likely to be bugs
JabRef 5.6--2022-01-25--2c92eb0
Windows 10 10.0 amd64
Java 16.0.2
JavaFX 17.0.1+1
JabRef and the library are both on a local system WITHOUT dropbox or other sync or backup software interfering.
I was able to reliably trigger the behaviour like this:
also remove subgroups
.Result: There is a popup "The library has been modified by another program."
Most importantly, after the bug triggers once, it does not go away until Jabref was having a restart. So afterwards, every click on save will trigger the popup again, regardless of having deleted a group prior to that or not...
Expected result: No popup.
Edit: Not sure if it actually is the same issue as the original post. This is how the modified dialogue looks like:
