Adobe Premiere Pro quit unexpectedly? Learn how to recover the last saved state of your open projects.
Follow these steps to recover the last saved version of your project after a crash.
- After a crash, open Premiere Pro. You'll get a pop-up stating Premiere Pro quit unexpectedly while a project was open.
Caution:
The restoration pop-up won’t appear again if dismissed or the next time the application launches.
- Select Reopen to open all the available projects in the state before the application was closed unexpectedly. If you save the restored project with the current changes, it will be saved to the main file.
- If you wish to restore previous versions of your projects, you can revert to the last user-saved state by selecting File > Revert.
- If you need to restore your projects manually or you want to restore a specific version of your project, navigate to the Auto-Save/ RecoveryProjects folder located within your project folder and select between the various time-stamped versions.
Tip:
Reduce the intervals between autosaves to ensure Premiere Pro frequently backs up your project and reduces project loss in case of a crash.
