Missing com.adobe.CSXS.<version>.plist files

[Hendrik5E8E]

Hello, I am trying to work with an unsigned Premiere Pro panel. However there are no com.adobe.CSXS.10.plist files located under /Library/Preferences/.

I did try "sudo defaults write /Users/<user>/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.CSXS.10.plist", but it doesn't help. Also getting the plist files from a colleague (for whom the exact same panel shows up and works in debug mode) did not change anything.

I have tried it in Premiere 2020 and 2021, and tried writing creating CSXS.8.plist, CSXS.9.plist, CSXS.10.plist and CSXS.11.plist

I also completely removed Creative Cloud and all corresponding products and reinstalled them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards

Hendrik

The panel shows up in the extensions dialog, but it does not start/open.

PPro has moved to CEP 11, so creating a CSXS.11.plist works. Don't forget to re-launch Finder, after creating the new file.

Hello Bruce, thank you for your quick response. The reason I was unable to create the CSXS was, that I created them inside

/Library/Preferences/

which turns out to be a different path from

/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/

Now I do have the CSXS.11.plist in /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/, and I have restarted my finder. But in premiere I still can't open the panel?

I'm away from my computer, but I haven't heard of any problems from developers following the instructions in the PProPanel readme ( updated to 11):

defaults write /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.CSXS.11.plist PlayerDebugMode 1

After removing and readding the panel, as well as uninstalling and reinstalling the CSXS a whole bunch of times, it suddenly started working.

I'm not sure what exactly did the trick, but thank you for your help.
