Question

Remove / change default presets bin folder

Hey all!

 

So I just installed a preset that another Editor on my team shared with me and it created this folder:

And it now sits at the top above my other folders, including my previous "Presets" bin which was the default and used to sit at the top:

Anyway, I've since removed the presets from within that folder, but now I cannot delete the folder itself or rename it. Has anyone faced this issue before and know how to fix? Adobe haven't been much help other than suggesting I reset my preferences, which they inform me will remove all custom presets, which ain't happening.

can you navigate to that folder on your fileystem and remove it there instead of within Premiere?

Unless I'm being blind, I wish it were that easy. It appears Adobe wraps all presets into one file and that's it. I've searched high and low through the Adobe folders in:

-My Documents

-Program Files

-App Data

But nothing 😞

 

This is what the file I mentioned looks like:

Export all custom presets from the effects palet

Close Premiere

Delete the Effect Preset and Custom items.prfpset

 

 

reboot program

import all exported presets.

 

Resetting preferences does not delete custom presets.
