Question

Duplicated settings keeps old username

I moved from a small production company to my home system.  I duplicated the premiere user settings.  I copied the folder and put it in the right location and renamed it to match my local username.  It has been working fine, no issues except on tiny one that annoys me.

 

I am working on Productions and when I open a project the username shows up in the "project locked" column, as it should.  But instead of showing my username it shows the name of the production facility.   I believe this is because that was the username of the Mac I was working on at the facility.

 

So my questions is:  Is there a way to change the username within the settings folder?  

 

(I am working on local attached storage, not in the cloud or off of servers)

Hi @Ovidius9000 - Please navigate to your preferences under Collaboration you will see a setting labeled "Project Locking" that is where you can change your User Name.
