There's what's called New Designer now with a toggle on the top right. I have to assume you've encountered this by now. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/flows-designer
Sometimes the toggle on the top right is there, sometimes it's not. If not, you can change the end of the page URL from &v3=true to &v3=false
To keep a flow in classic designer, add a comment to the trigger and save it.
For now, this is working but I'm just waiting for the shoe to drop. I have tried the new designer and it's just atrocious and inefficient. I'm still relatively new to Power Automate but in the past four years, I've learned how to work with the platform. They're now asking / mandating people relearn the platform and retrain their brains to work with something that's slower, less intuitive, and less logical. Practically, they're squeezing a drafting table down to the size of a cell phone screen.
It's a weekly, if not daily, occurrence now that Microsoft rolls out some update that just adds inefficiencies to my job. I can not think of a single thing they've implemented that was helpful to me in any way.
