Cannot access project resources

[Louis Lacasse]

I am working on a project using premiere elements 2023.

After importing pictures, videos and music, I cannot access the project resources!!

I want to change certain pictures and music but I cannot access them.

I tried importing them again, but the project resources tab does not drop down.

Thank you

I'm not sure I understand but I think I see two questions.  First, it might be that there is confusion about "importing".   Resources are not inside a Premiere Elements project.  Instead they are referenced by location.   After you put a resourse file on your computer, it has to stay where you put it for the while you are working on the project.  If it moves or the drive it is on is disconnected, it will cease to be available.  

Can you provide a screen shot that would help understanding your "resources tab" question.  Is it that a menu does not appear or is it that your media is not appearing?

Thank you Bill for your reply, 

My problem is simple.  The project resources (pictures,  music)  that I had access previously cannot be accessed anymore! If I click on the project resources tab, nothing appears. 

Thank you

How are you importing them?

Are they being imported to an external drive?

Hello Peru Bob,

The problem is not with the import. I had access to all of the project's assets before and now when I click on the tab "project assets " nothing happens,  the pull down menu does not work!

Thank you.

If it were me and I knew I had not deleted or moved any of the assets, I would uninstall and then reinstall Premiere Elements.
