TGB 1.7.4 Build Directory Issues

First of all, the Build dialog never remembers the location I want the project to be built to. It defaults to "My Documents" every time when TGB is closed/restarted.
Secondly, my project name is Universe. When it builds the project, it makes the normal directory structure (visualized as nested code):
But then it duplicates the files like so:
With a little bit of testing, it seems that it does this only when I change the default build directory from My Documents and only when I leave off the ending slash on the path.
For example (on my computer my "My Documents" folder is located at C:/Documents):
C:/Documents <-- default directory builds just fine
C:/Documents/TGB/Builds/ <-- trailing forwardslash builds just fine
C:/Documents/TGB/Builds <-- no trailing forwardslash! Duplicate files!
The bad thing is that the default behavior of browsing for a path leaves off the trailing forwardslash so it has to be put there manually.
Secondly, my project name is Universe. When it builds the project, it makes the normal directory structure (visualized as nested code):
Universe
{
common
game
resources
}But then it duplicates the files like so:
Universe
{
common
{
data
gameScripts
gui
preferences
[b]Universe // this shouldn't be here! and neither should its subdirectories![/b]
{
common
{
data
gameScripts
gui
preferences
}
}
game
{
behaviors
data
gameScripts
gui
managed
[b]Universe // this shouldn't be here! and neither should its subdirectories![/b]
{
game
{
behaviors
data
gameScripts
gui
managed
}
}
}
resources
{
particlesArt
starterArt
[b]Universe // this shouldn't be here! and neither should its subdirectories![/b]
{

starterArt
}
