P: Specific Presets do Not Save when I exit and return from the application (PREMIERE PRO)

Summary of the issue:

When I import specific effects presets in Premiere Pro, they do not save after I exit and return to the application. While some effects within the preset do save, certain specific ones, such as the "shake" effect, are not saved.

Steps to reproduce the bug:

  1. Import a custom preset that includes multiple effects, including the "shake" effect.
  2. Exit Premiere Pro.
  3. Open Premiere Pro again and check if the effects have been saved.

Expected result:

All imported effects, including the specific "shake" effect, should be saved and available when I reopen Premiere Pro.

Actual result:

The "shake" effect (and some other specific effects) is not saved, even though other effects within the preset are retained.

Additional information:

  • I am not using any third-party plugins or panels.
  • Please find my system specs and exact Premiere Pro version below: Windows 11, Premiere 24.6.1.

These 2 effect presets refuse to stay in Premiere after restart. They are from the Essential Motion 2 Preset pack. If I dupliacte them or put them into a custom preset folder, same issue.

My specs:
Mac M1 Max 64GB RAM

Mac OS 14.2.1
Premiere 25.0.0 Build 61

This has been broken since 24.6.1

Hello dear Premiere Pro users and the team, i'm using Premiere Pro 25 currently and I have some presets that helps me to do my job faster. And i relaized Premiere Pro removing some of the presets every time i close the app and i have to import the preset file everytime when i open again. Why this is happening?

I'm using Essential Motion v2.0 preset which is pretty popular and decent preset but Premiere Pro removes some of the effects inside of this preset and its bothering when i import everytime for no spesific reason 😕😕

Any help or advice is welcomed, thanks.

HI @musaby - I believe Essential Motion has updated their presets to be compatible with version 25.  Please check with the developer.

Hi All,

 

The Adobe team reached out to me to let me know about this issue. They where very kind to help me easily fix the problem.

Everyone that ever downloaded the preset-pack can re-download it from their order to get the latest working version.

 

Here's a link to the original preset: https://www.cinecom.net/video-packs/ultimate-earthquake/

 

Stay Creative,
Jordy

@defaultqsbbseec9r3g I believe you have a slightly different issue than the rest of us in this post, but I believe your issue just happens to have some overlap with the obsolete effects thing.  I have seen the exact same thing with the disapparing folder and presets, but it only ever happened once on my end.

Is it possible for you to send me one of those presets that are disappearing? I'd like to try something.

@Nam Tran I'm very sorry to report that this workaround didn't solve the problem. Thank you for being responsive 🙏

 

It seems to be a glitch within premiere. I can see all my presets when I open premiere for a few seconds. But then the effects menu collapses and then it somehow resorts back minus all of the saved changes. It's almost as if my presets are being saved and loaded from elsewhere. I just don't get how this keeps happening.

I'm also having the same problem with premiere pro. Started in version 24, and now also in version 25. New custom preset folders are disappearing on restart. Custom presets disappear on restart. Certain Presets from Cinepunch Transitionpunch 5.0 also disappear. 

 

An odd thing happens where sometimes when I open premiere, My effects tab clicks from expanded to collapsed.  In that brief moment, while it's expanded, 30% of the time, I can see those presets that I've saved and the original presets within the "transitionpunch" folder. 

 

But when the effects preset folder clicks automatically and collapses, those presets are now all missing. 

 

As of yesterday I did the following to unsuccessfully resolve:

-Upgraded from version 24 to 25 on windows 10. 

-did a clean install of windows 10 and upgraded to windows 11. 

-did a fresh install of premiere 25 on windows 11.

-saved the presets before closing the project.

-imported the presets (which then created duplicates

-moved the presets to a custom folder. 

 

None of this works. 

 

I'd say this all started happening around 2-3 months ago. (Around September 2024).

 

I am running windows 10 and now 11.
