Need to know how to find the default file location settings. This program just keeps getting worse

1. You dont need to use the welcome screen. Just click on the icon in the taskbar or go to your project folder and double click on the name of your project.

2. All directories are in one place: the same as the project.

Default is Documents / Adobe / Premiere Elements, but you chance change that to any location.

If you open an autosave then the first thing you do is rename the project and put it in your main project folder.

1 - I have links that go direct to the programs (my version is 2021)
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 2021\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements 2021\PremiereElementsEditor.exe"
.
2 - In Expert mode I set my locations that are then used for all projects
YOUR locations will be set according to your installed drives
I set my project and work files to F:\???
(Where F:\??? is an actual name created on my F drive with File Explorer)
(F is MY drive for temporary files, your drive letter may be different)
I work in EXPERT view to be able to control every aspect of my project
Click EDIT and then PREFERENCES and then SCRATCHDISKS
I set every one of the project options to F:\Adobe
PrE then automatically creates sub-folders as needed
F:\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements Audio Previews
F:\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements Captured Audio
F:\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements Captured Video
F:\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements Video Previews
F:\Adobe\Encoded Files
F:\Adobe\Layouts
F:\Adobe\Peak Files
