Learn to save, backup, and recover the last saved state of your open projects in Premiere Elements.
You can now quickly save, back up, and recover your projects on your Premiere Elements projects after a crash.
Save a project
Saving a project saves your editing decisions, references to source files, and the most recent arrangement of panels. Protect your work by saving often.
- To save the currently open project, choose File > Save.
- To save a copy of a project, choose File > Save As, specify a location and filename, and select Save.
- To save a copy of a project and continue working on the original project, choose File > Save A Copy. Specify a location and filename, and select Save.
Set up a scratch disk to specify where Premiere Elements stores project‑related files, such as captured video and audio, and previews.
Back up a project with Auto Save
To revisit editing decisions or recover from a crash, enable the Auto Save option. This option automatically saves backup project files to the Adobe Premiere Elements Auto‑Save folder at a specified time interval. For example, you can set Premiere Elements to save a backup copy every 15 minutes.
Automatic saving serves as an alternative to the Undo command, depending on the project changes between each save. Because project files are smaller compared to source video files, archiving multiple versions of a project consumes less disk space.
-
-
Do one of the following, and then click OK:
Select Automatically Save Projects, and enter the duration in minutes, after which Adobe Premiere Elements saves the project.
Type a number for the Maximum Project Versions to specify how many versions of each project file you want to save. For example, if you type 5, Premiere Elements saves five versions of each project you open.
ملاحظة:Each time you open a project, save it at least once before the Auto Save option takes effect.
Open an Auto Save project
-
Do either of the following:
Start Adobe Premiere Elements. In the Welcome screen, select Video Editor and then select Existing Project.
In Adobe Premiere Elements, choose File > Open Project.
-
In the project folder, open the file in the Adobe Premiere Elements Auto‑Save folder. (If no files are available, the Auto Save preference is possibly turned off.)ملاحظة:
When you start Premiere Elements after a crash, a message prompts whether you want to open the last saved version of your project.
Project Recovery
Restore the latest saved version of your Premiere Elements project by doing the following:
-
After a crash, open Premiere Elements. You'll get a pop-up stating, "Premiere Elements quit unexpectedly while a project was open."
تحذير:The restoration pop-up won’t appear again if dismissed or the next time the application launches.
-
Select Reopen to open all the projects in the state they were available before the application was closed unexpectedly. If you save the restored project with the current changes, it will be saved to the main file.
-
If you wish to restore previous versions of your projects, you can revert to the last user-saved state by using File > Revert.
Reduce the intervals between autosaves to ensure Premiere Elements frequently backs up your project and reduces project loss in case of a crash.
Recover projects manually
You can also manually recover your projects by doing the following:
-
Navigate to your project folder.
-
Inside the Auto-Save folder, you'll find a subfolder named Recovery Projects, which should have a file for each project. This is the save created when Premiere Pro crashes or is forced to quit.
-
If you wish to restore to a previous version of an autosaved file, open the Auto-Save folder and select between the various time-stamped versions.
