I just got a new CR-10 SE. I downloaded the newest version of Creality's slicer (It's called "Creality Print" instead of "Creality Slicer"; see pic at end), and printed a couple of test prints. The prints look great, but I noticed that every time I go to print something, the bed heats up to 60 °C during prep, then the printer waits for it to cool back down to 50 °C before actually printing. I have looked over all the settings in the slicer and cannot figure out why it does this. All the temperature settings (that I could find) are shown in the picture (which has them all set to 50 °C):

Bed temperature settings

I even scoured through the G-code and found a couple of commands: M140 S50 ;Set final bed temp and M190 S50 ;Wait for bed temp to stabilize

This should mean that the bed only ever heats up to 50 °C right?

Is this behavior because of a setting on the physical printer itself? Is it because I'm using Creality Cloud Print? Is it a bug in the newest version of their software?

I'm genuinely so lost as to where to look to change this.

The slicer that I downloaded is the highlighted one:

My guess would be that it's part of the autolevelling routine.
There's no reason to run autolevel on every print. It's quite possible that routine heats the bed to 60 to ensure thermal expansion doesn't mess anything up. Find the Preference item that is making autolevel part of every gcode, and uncheck it or the equivalent.
