This you have to check at file system level.

Yes, in the extension manager you can see no difference.

No, this still points to the extension folder , which seems to be shared
in your case.

Just change that in your top-level typoscript setup:
 plugin.tx_ajaxsearch_pi1 {
   templateFile = fileadmin/mytemplates/template.html
}

(Don't forget to upload your changed template to this folder.)
