That's not how you open an archive.
The project in the Project Manager and the .drp in the archive are are completely separate and independent. The .drp in the archive will not update after your edits, because it's not actually installed in Resolve. It's just a backup. The project that you're editing and savings is stored in the database, not the archive.
You're *supposed* to open an archive by right clicking in the project manager and choosing 'restore archive' (or something like that). What you did (presumably) is double click the .drp in the archive, which then installed the project in the Project Manager and, surprisingly, the installed project found your footage in the archive, despite the fact that you didn't formally restore it.
You can probably continue this way, but next time you might want to follow the suggested procedure...
