I am pretty sure that at least one of those pdfs was via texdoc from Terminal. I would try to see where the pdf is located, by clicking on the small icon in the Preview bar, and/or the v sign. I would see the directory of the previous pdf, obviously not the right one.

The “down arrow” to the right of the file name drops a window with two text boxes (name, tags), and a directory. The content of the latter may be the directory name where last it looked. I can’t be sure now (it’s been a couple of weeks since I used it).

Howdy,
If you Cmd-Click the File Name you get the full path of the document. I think it has been that way for a long time.
Good Luck,
