Opening Module get old project layers

Every time I open a Module, it get layers from previous opened project file. It doesn´t matter if I open them form the file>open way, or I open them with the Hotlink Module manager. Today I just turn on the computer and open a project, then a Module inside that project and the Module had layers from a project file I was working on  yesterday. How do I prevent this to happen??

You don't, that is the way it works.

Modules only contain the attributes used by the actual module.

But when you open them, you also see the attributes you had in your last open file.

Exactly why this is I am not sure.

But when you amend and save the module (as a MOD file) it will only save used attributes.
