Emulator settings lost when renaming emulator (auto-population bug)

All of an emulator's settings are lost / set default when an existing emulator is renamed to a pre-defined name. I don't think editing an existing emulator should cause auto-population, it should only occur when adding a new emulator.

Steps to reproduce:

Edit an existing emulator ("ePSXe" is used in this example)
Rename the emulator ("ePSXe (Hi-Def)") and hit OK
Edit the renamed emulator
Change the name to a pre-defined emulator name ("ePSXe")
Auto-population occurs, wiping out emulator path, custom command-line, and other settings.

Workaround:

The issue can be worked around by manually editing Emulators.xml with the new emulator name.

Tested on:

LaunchBox 7.4
Windows 10 64-bit
