Add “Masks” Folder Location to Project Settings - Scratch Disk Preferences

Please add the Masks folder destination to the Project Settings - Scratch Disks panel so editors can control where it’s stored.

Right now, having it auto-create in unmanaged locations:

  • Creates unnecessary project clutter

  • Disrupts organized folder structures

  • Complicates backup workflows

For those of us who maintain strict file hierarchies (especially in professional post-production environments), centralized media and cache control is essential. Every other major generated asset type can be directed — Masks should be consistent with that logic.

Y’all - Please upvote so we can get this added!!

    I do NOT understand how The Masks folder and the .PRIN files are NOT being moved to Scratch Disks. What does Adobe think the whole point of Scratch Disks are???
