If you have opened this projects recently in premiere pro than you can go to Main Menu > file > Open Recent or try searching in your PC using the file extension of Premiere pro, which is .prproj

I literally just tried all of these

nothing is working with me

[Vishu_Aggarwal]

Than it might have been hidden file in your PC, so try searching with hidden files visible in windows or the project might have been stored in external drive.

Also try looking into the Users > Your Username > Documents > Adobe > Premiere pro folder.

I did all of that, still nothing is showing up

Projects dont just disappear.

Might have been misplaced or accidental deleted.

Look for auto save or a back up file.

This was very helpful, I must say that it would make sense to make it part of the program it's self to be able to see cleanly in one place all of your work. That said, I am glad you helped my find it. May the tech gods smile on you today.

Are you on a Mac?

Here's another thread where someone could not find files that ended up being hidden.

Cannot find saved PSD files on iMac

I am windows 10, and still not finding any of the three projects

[Peru Bob]

They aren't on an external drive that is not connected, are they?

[Dean_Utian]

If you're on Windows, my guess - like others have said - is that it was on an external hard drive. That would explain why it can't be found.

Another possibility is that if you were saving files to the desktop and were logged in as a different user before.

Hi fatimaha49944392,

Surely you have been working all in an external hard drive, perhaps without realizing it. If so, connect any device you've had mounted while doing your editing and try to open the projects again.
