Premiere Pro won't play, preview or export video after reopening file

Report · Dec 26, 2023

Hi,

When I start a new project and edit videos, it's all fine until I save, close and come back to it later, when the sequence won't play and it gives me errors when I try to export like audio render error.

I literally had to re-edit in a new file like three times and finally I just had to do it all in one sitting so I don't face the issue of coming back to it.

This is so frustrating. Why does Premiere Pro have so many issues?

Never easy to troubleshoot premiere problems from a distance so please tell us your system specs: OS version, Premiere version, amount of RAM, Hardware specs including graphics card and if you have any 3rd party plugins installed for Premiere... Also, sequence settings and clip properties can also help. Although you can throw almost any format into premiere, some formats can be problematic, particularly on an underpowered system.

As far as Premiere having so many issues, Gotta, say I rarely have any issues and none that I can't solve or workaround using basic troubleshooting steps. This forum is an incredible resource and if I have any issues, I can find a helping hand here.
