Proxies - no automatic relink i 2022-update.

I have the sameproblem, very frustrating!!

Just got the Canon R5c and had this same issue! I have discovered that with only "Media Start" checked they will Re-Link. I think Premiere uses the timecode information to relink with this method vs. the clip name.  Althought make sure your raw footage and proxies have the same number of audio channels

I had the same problem with the latest update and my C200 footage.  Based on Robbie W's reply, the workaround I used for Windows really wasn't bad. The camera adds "_P" to the filename, so I batch renamed the remove it.  The process I used: go to the DOS prompt (type CMD in the search bar). Navigate to your directory of proxies using your basic DOS commands. Then simply type the rename command "ren *.* ???????????????????????.*" where the number of question marks equals the amount of filename characters you want to keep (eg 2 fewer than you have).  Hope this saves someone a headache.

Hello guys. Any oficial solution from Adobe about this?

Thank you!

In case the 'Correct Answer' doesn't make it obvious enough, the proxy file's filenames must match those of the original in order for Premiere to automatically link them. You can batch rename your proxy files by using Finder in Mac, and Find and Replace to remove any extraneous characters. 

This problem is not seen since the beginning of the upgrade to v. 22. Users write, and Adobe employees talk about something else. It feels like they don't use these functions. I will emphasize that this is one of the most important and frequently used in the workflow, which makes it possible to work productively. And this function was cut off for us. Work, as they say, thinking how to get out of this situation.

Adobe, WHEN WILL THERE BE A FIX?

Yes, I had this problem too.  Notice the operative word, "had". 

I spent around an hour on Adobe Chat with Bahadur, and he fixed me up by restting my preferences.  It all works great now.  I am pasting his steps below.  I realize I'm being Captain Obvious here, but make sure you have selected all your clips in any given bin prior to attaching proxies in order to ensure every clip in that bin is attached.  Also, to verify that your clip has an attached proxy, right-click on the clip and go to properties.  As usual you'll see the standard info about the clip, but look (scroll) below and if you see a section entitled 'proxy', the proxy is successfully attached.  You can check this either in the bin or when the clip is on the timeline.

Alright, enough delay, here are the steps, good luck I hope this works for you!

Step 1: Open Task manager, go to process tab and close all Adobe related programs like (Creative cloud, Core sync, CC library, services for Adobe desktop app, Adobe desktop service, AdobeIPCbroker, AAM updater).

Step 2: Go to these locations and rename the "Premiere pro” folder and change the name to "Premiere pro.old"

1. Open file explorer >> Documents >> Adobe >> Premiere pro (Rename this folder)

2. Press WIN & R keys from keyboard to open RUN prompt >> Type %appdata% >> enter >> Adobe >> Premiere pro (Rename this folder)

I would like to inform you one thing after resetting preferences you might not be able to see your presets like workspaces, effect presets etc. Do you want them back or you can recreate them again?

Yes I noticed that, but I'm fine I can recreate them.

So, after almost 6 months, Adobe has still not fixed this even with the latest update?

Since version 22, Proxy automatic relinking is still not working...

So, I am still stuck at version 15.4.1

This is beyong ridiculous, how do they expect us to pay them money and not fix such a major issue?

hey all, after pulling hair out over this one, I'm pretty sure I've found a workaround:

- uncheck "file extension" before attempting to search and relink --> this seems to auto-relink just fine. Which makes me think it's a premiere bug in filename extensions or something in that area

I'd imagine the workaround of saving the project for 2021 and relinking in 2021 before opening in 2022 would work too,  since I've never seen this in the 2021 version, but this new trick is doing it for me and saving a massive headache. Hope it helps others.

I am having the same problem. Proxies are named the same and have the same extensions as the original clips. It doesen't matter what parameter I try to play with in the autolink dialogue box but it simply doesen't work! Had no issues on previous versions of premiere using the exact same workflow. Really hope this gets fixed soon!
