Premiere 24.5 has to re-render every time I open the project - why?

[spinachworld]

I recently updated to version 24.5 of Premiere and I'm encountering a bug.  I don't know if it's because of the new version or something else, but every time I re-open the project, everything needs to be rendered again.

I'm currently working on a timeline that's more than an hour long, and there are portions of it that have significant effects.  I rendered everything on the timeline for my first cut after I updated, and everything seemed fine, although the clips took several hours to render.  I'm now going back into the project for fine cuts, and every time I've re-opened the project, the bar is red again and I have to re-render the same clips.  This is a big time waster.  Any troubleshooting suggestions, or is there something obvious I'm overlooking?

This is not something I've experienced previously, and my settings haven't changed from the previous version.

I recommend going to Settings > Timeline and turning off "Restore open sequences when opening projects." This will give Premiere more time to load previews for your sequences.

Cheers,

I am having a similar issue. 

Things I have tried and have NOT worked: 

- Make sure the "Restore open sequences when opening projects" is checked 

- Set the video previews and audio previews files to "same as project" in scratch disks

- Set the video previews and audio previews files to a custome folder for rendere files, also in the project folder in scratch disks

- Clear unsued cache media 

- reset and restart

This was contrary to the explanation above:

"- Make sure the "Restore open sequences when opening projects" is checked"

IE: UNchecked would possibly help.

I just tried that too and it also did not work
