Model deformed when reopening file

I have made a cylindric model, which I have saved. After reopening the file, the model is deformed, and the scale on the y - axis is always 1.42, while staying 1 on the other dimensions. Moreover, the location is reset.

After correcting the scale and re-saving the model, it is again deformed in exactly the same way when I re-open the file, and the location is again reset.

As a new user, Im unable to upload the file. I am now using Blender version 4.2, but the issue was also present for version 4.1.

It must be a bug of some kind. It seems my model is unusable now. Does anyone have similar experiences and what can be done to solve it?

Welcome :tada:

You may get some better answers if you take your time to get a little more than a new user and are able to upload the file (< 5MB, use compress feature of blender, remove ever unused/unimportant stuff)… so someone may be able to say something valueable about this, because: yes indeed; it does sound a little weird that a saved model will change after loading, but it is a bit little of information.

Also it’s good practice to say something about the version of blender and maybe even the OS. So you may have to elaborate this to get a more suited answer.
