Welcome to Software Tip Tuesday for Adobe Premiere Professional on ProVideo Coalition.
Each week, we are going to share a brand new tooltip to save lots of time when working in Adobe Premiere Professional.
Regardless of what you would possibly learn on social media, Adobe Premiere Professional is a really secure modifying platform, particularly when following finest practices for storage and media sorts. However every so often you might need to do some troubleshooting when issues come up. One of many best issues to do is use the Reset choices methodology when launching Premiere to do exactly that … reset quite a lot of choices with the appliance.
To carry up the Reset choices dialog field, maintain down a modifier key when launching Premiere, corresponding to choice on a Mac or ALT on a PC. Maintain that key down till the Reset choices dialog field seems.
Whereas it’s not unusual to see recommendation to pick out all of the above choices when troubleshooting, you may be extra selective in selecting one choice at a time to see if one reset or cache clear would possibly assist with a problem. I’d counsel learning the Reset choices dialog field earlier than utilizing any of the choices to higher perceive what you’re doing. One method to study extra is go to Adobe’s assist documentation and study why you would possibly wish to reset the preferences within the first place. And when you’re at it, why not study a bit extra concerning the mysterious Premiere Professional media cache and all these recordsdata the media cache creates.
You can too hover your mouse over the query marks for a pop-up that describes what every choice does.
On the very least, learn over these pop-ups earlier than executing any resets. It’s vital to notes that when you’re resetting preferences and deleting cache recordsdata, nothing you would possibly do right here can’t be regenerated (as in with the media cache recordsdata), relaunched (as within the plugins), or re-set up (as within the app preferences).
When all else fails, dig into Body.io’s article about troubleshooting Premiere Professional. Although this text is written about Premiere Professional 2024 the data remains to be legitimate.
