How to change project settings after footage is all cut up on Premiere Elements

Hi,

I've spent a couple of hours cutting and editing gopro footage, unfortunately the first file I added to the timeline was the soundtrack.

Now my project resolution and frame rate are wrong and I can't adjust it in order to just select "4k UHD" in render options using mp4 - XAVC-S because it defaults to 60fps

Two questions :

  1. Is there a way, even hacky, to change project settings for an existing project?
  2. If not, how can I render with same UHD xavc-s settings but just change the frame rate?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

60 fps UHD footage sometimes can't be recognized by Premiere Elements. But meantime, here's my trick for changing your project's settings mid-project.

Thanks @Steve Grisetti ! Very helpful and worked like a charm.

If anyone from Adobe listening in on this, would be great to just make that an option in the project settings
