hello,
this might be wierd to you

but when i click on default Untitled project in davinci resolve 20 it is asking me to create new project and save it with other name,

i do my edits in one go so i don't save them,

i don't want to save my projects, i just want to open untitled project directly, earlier in davinci resolve 19 it directly opened untitled project without asking me to create new project seperatly,

how do i open untitled project directly in davinci resolve 20 without it asking me to save project, how do i do it

You don't.

99.999% of users save their edits. Letting you close a newly modified project without saving or warning you would result in data loss for most users.

Just create a blank project and if you don't want to save your edits just CMD+A select all and delete once you're done.

I get what you mean, that it had its charm earlier when you could simply open a blank temp project to play around with.

That dialog is unavoidable in version 20.

Btw. when you open an existing project and then close it, you end up in the good old temp Untitled Project that doesn't get saved unless you want to. Just close project 1 and then close the project manager.
