Is there a way to remove proxies?
Once you are done with them and want to clear up some hard drive space I am going to probably delete proxies. I have tried this but once you delete the proxies the project constantly asks to reconnect the proxy files at project open and when you double click on a clip on the timeline it asks for "Edit Offline File" instead of opening in the source monitor. Am I missing some functionality here? Seems like an obvious oversight.
If its not already in the program, hopefully they can add a button to the media re-link windows that allows you to "forget proxies" or something.
Did you quit Premiere, delete Proxies, launch Premiere and select Offline All in Link Media dialog, then save the Project? If you don't save, then it will keep asking for the Offline clips. This works for me.
Also, double-clicking a clip with Offline Proxy in Timeline Sequence resulting in Edit Offline dialog (rather than open in Source monitor), is an open issue. The current workaround is to hold down CMD/Ctrl key and double-click clip to open in Source monitor.
Sorry for the wait. Detach Proxies is now added to Premiere Pro 14.3.1. This will detach the Proxy from your clip(s). It will not delete them from your hard drive, but it will remove the Proxy attachment in Premiere Pro (Proxy column in Project panel will update blank/empty), which means the Link Media dialog will not come up asking for missing Proxies as they have actually be detached from the clip(s).

this did not work for me. I even put the proxies in the trash. The ONLY thing that worked was indivudually clicking OFFLINE for each of the 802 clips... it sucked but only took about ten minutes once I figured it out.. this is a bug that really needs to be fixed. Thanks everyone!
