Hello 
I am using Adobe Premiere Elements 2020 to edit videos, which has worked rather smoothly. However, lately, every time I open a certain project, folders appear on my desktop (I am using a Macbook). The folders are called "Adobe Premiere Elements Audio Previews", "Encoded Files", "Layouts", "Adobe Premiere Elements Captured Audio".... and so on. Whenever I delete these folders and reopen the project, they just immediately reappear on my desktop. How can I change where these folders are "stored"?

These sub-folders play a vital role in your project's editing. They will automatically be generated whenever you store a project file in a directory folder.

 

And they are a GOOD thing. Don't throw them away until you're sure you're done with your project.
