This is an issue in prototyping:
Even if the ‘Reset Scroll Position’ box is unchecked (i.e., not selected), the prototype will still reset the scroll position unless all the frames involved have a ‘/’ (Forward Slash) in their Title.
The position of this ‘/’ can be anywhere in the Frame Title, but without it it the prototype does not adhere to the scroll position retention.
IMO, this is a Bug rather than an intended use case and should be fixed.

Hi Luv!
Thanks for your feedback. We’ll pass it along to our product team for consideration.
For visibility, this is intended. We made a change on May 24, 2023, to preserve scrolling between top-level frames, the top-level frame names have to be identical or have a matching prefix (for example, frames Checkout / Empty and Checkout / Complete match).

@Celine_Figma I have read the help article and – unless I’m missing something – followed the naming conventions… but my prototype still resets the scroll position when clicking a link in a nested frame.
Here’s a screenshot of my frames and prototype pathing:
And here’s a link to the prototype.
