Django has stopped responding to changes in static files, and media files are loaded into a new media subfolder under the media folder. What's wrong??

I’m doing, doing, here’s a test site, I haven’t touched static files and media files for a long time. And so I needed to add styles to the connected (and seemingly working) css file. But doesn't work. And if, for example, you delete everything from this local css file (which is in the static folder of the application), write the "collectstatic" command, then NOTHING WILL CHANGE, all the previous styles will remain, although I erased everything from the css file.
Also (I don’t know if this problem is related to this one), when I try to upload media files (through the admin panel, as I did before), they are uploaded to the media folder in the media subfolder (which I myself create for some reason). Although before everything was normally loaded into "media", without creating any subfolder.
It seems that settings.py has not been touched for a long time. I don't know what happened.
