It looks like the new update has enabled Auto-Run settings by default, or perhaps the update itself turned them on. Previously, I had it disabled during usage. Also, I noticed a UI change, the new version displays a dropdown menu and shifts cursor focus to it. So when I think I am editing code, the focus is actually on the dropdown, and pressing Enter ends up executing the selected command. This behaviour was not present earlier.
