Question

All of my project files from version 26.0 have vanished.

Literally all my project files from 26.0 which were saved in my Documents are gone. The Metadata folder for 26.0 is the only thing showing any record of my projects. All the projects from 25.0 are still showing but 26.0 is acting like it’s a completely new program with no previous projects. I’m extremely confused. Never happened before. 26.0 Folder doesn’t even have the Audio Previews / Video Previews / Auto-Save folders like 25.0 does. The only thing showing any record of my projects from 26.0 is the Metadata folder. My project files are nowhere to be found and I don’t save them to the cloud.

    Are you saying that you don’t see your .prproj files created in Premiere 2026 in your Documents folder?

    Please tell us more. Are looking in the folder through Premiere where they should be or are you navigating to them through Windows or Mac OS outside of Premiere?
