Project list disappeared

Opened Premiere as I do every day and today my list of current projects was gone. The entire list... GONE. I went to every backup folder I had; a few I didn't know existed and there was nothing. No backup. Projects gone that I have been working on for the past three weeks. I did find this was a known bug in the past with NO solution. I spoke to a tech person at Adobe today and nothing. He had no clue and neither did any of the staff.

 

I'm losing clients and you are still getting my money.  Help or I'll just go to Davinci.

You're talking about two different things: PPro's recent project list, and your actual project files on disk.

PPro doesn't delete project files. 

Deleting your preferences would clear out your recent project list, as would removing the storage volume on which the projects were stored. 

Did anything change, about the volumes attached to that system? Are your project files still visible, in OS file browsers?

Literally nothing changed. I did everything exactly they same as I have been doing for months. I closed the program and shut down my Mac. Next day, opened Premiere and my list of projects was gone. As were the backups. No one uses my computer except me. A quick web search showed this is indeed an issue - old or not.

That other thread was a OneDrive problem; are you using OneDrive, on your project (and auto-save) directories?
