Forerunner 265 heart rate zones keep changing by itself

Hey all, just looking for some advice on heart rate zones.

My forerunner 265 keeps changing my HR zones for some reason. I only care about the HR zones for my running, for which I set custom ones using BPM.

I have gotten rid of all my sport specific HR zones and only use the generic one with my custom zones, and I have made sure to sync from the garmin connect app on phone and not change from the watch, and have turned off my auto detect max HR and threshold.

It still ends up changing it back to default heart rates every couple days and is very frustrating when I realise this half way through my run.

I think the issue is it keeps adding a set of sport specific running HR zones at default zone ranges under the 'add sport heart rate' tab automatically after a couple days and once i delete this it goes back to normal. Does anybody know how to stop this from auto creating?

Also, I don't know whether this contributes but I make my HR zones based on BPM but it changes to %HRR or % Max HR by itself, but when I change it back to BPM it's still the same HR zones I set manually.

Thank you!
