Hi hanag23152869,

CFA and PEK files are the temporary files that Premiere Pro creates when you import media.

PEK are the peak files and are automatically generated to be able to display audio waveforms in the timeline.
CFA are the Conformed Audio files necessary to edit the Audio portion of your files.

These files should only be created once at import and they are required.

Premiere Pro creates a cache of all those conformed previews in a folder on your boot drive.

This is very helpful while you’re working on a project, you can get rid of these files or you can delete them after the completion of your project.

Thanks,

Thanks for answering.

It's really helpful.

Now I solve the thing. By setting the Media Cache Database Location, again.

Now the .CFA, .PEK, are all in the one folder I set, instead of following the original file.

good day, thanks a lot.
