I honestly have no idea what's going on here. "LastSaveLocation" was
only used until v3.0 of pgAdmin 4 (when the entire file that it was
part of was removed as part of the change to use the system's web
browser), so unless you're using 2.x or 1.x, I don't see any way that
it's possible for pgAdmin to write that to the plist file.

I think it must be. Something - I have no idea what - is apparently
replacing the file with a very old version.
