Hi Gary, If you load an old project created before V9 it doesn't have saved folder path for the File Panel. In this case, the project gets current folder displayed in the main window of PTE when you load this project for the first time in V11. Regarding recent projects saved in V10 or V11. Is there a chance that you could have opened a project and unintentionally changed the folder without even saving the project? Because it is enough to simply select another folder in the File panel and PTE automatically remembers your choice for the opened project (saving is not necessary). Honestly, I don't know another reason for this issue, it works correctly for my projects.

Tom, Thanks for your idea. Technically, the new program is based on the PTE engine with all its capabilities and effects.

Gary, Thanks for sending me ProjectsExtraData folder. Normally PTE automatically remembers last chosen folder in the FIle List, regardless Save command. And this path is recorded in ProjectsExtraData folder. The folder path could be changed only if you opened some project and changed the folder in the File List panel. Usually it works well. Probably you changed it after loading a project? If you delete ProjectsExtraData folder, PTE will read saved folder path from each project file on loading. Or try to choose another folder in the File panel for some project, do not save the project and close PTE AV Studio. Check ProjectsExtraData folder, it should contains an updated record for this project. I just checked - it works this way on my PC.

Hi, I've seen your another message that this issue occurs with Norton antivirus software. It's a false positive with Norton software, because a custom transition effect ( .pteeff file) is a simple ZIP archive with a project file and images insides. Project file is a text file. Every user can easily extract these files to check its content. Microsoft Windows Defender allows to download all custom transitions/styles. No problems. I created 4 test files. Two custom transitions (with and without additional image) and two slide styles (also with and without logo image). Try to download each file and let me know about the results. P.S. Please translate your messages to English for other members. Simple Style with Logo.ptestyle Simple Style.ptestyle Simple Transition Logo.pteeff Simple Transition.pteeff

Hi Gary, Usually it should work the following algorithm: Once you Save/Save As a project, the saved includes a parameter: ImagesFolder=C:\MyFolder\Images\ However it's possible that user chooses another folder for the FIle List without saving a project. PTE uses a special global storage here: C:\Users\YourProfileName\AppData\Local\PicturesToExe\ProjectsExtraData\ "ProjectsExtraData" contains text files (named as .dat files) where certain .pte project file is associated with a certain folder which should be displayed in the File List on loading a project. This global storage has a higher priority on loading of a project. And only if this global storage doesn't has a record for a project (new computer, renamed project), PTE reads and uses a folder path from a .pte project file (ImagesFolder parameter). You can make a backup of "ProjectsExtraData" folder in a ZIP and send me for checking. Also open 1-2 projects where wrong path is displayed on loading. don't save them. Send me these 2 projects (only .pte files) for checking in a personal message. You can delete "ProjectsExtraData" folder, and it will force PTE to load default folder from each .pte file. Then the global storage will be updated automatically with new records for recently loaded projects.

Hi George, Yes, we'll add checking for update to the program later.

Hi, Release Candidate 3 is available For Windows: https://files.wnsoft.com/ptevideooptimiser/ptevideooptimiser-setup.exe For Mac: https://files.wnsoft.com/ptevideooptimiser/PTE-Video-Optimiser.dmg The About window shows v1.0 Build 1. It's not a final version yet. Changes in this version: Added “Camera Lock” mode for video stabilisation. Explanation: Camera Lock mode simulates recording with a stationary camera on a tripod, when in reality the camera is handheld and there is small unwanted camera movement. Additionally we recommend to apply the Unsharp Mask (Sharpness parameter) to improve a result. Do not use this mode if you're recording on the move or if the camera is intentionally moved/rotated. Note: You can purchase a personal license key with a 20% discount before January 10th - for 23.20 USD. Read more

Denis, I'm glad!

Hi Andrew, If I understood rightly, you need the Mac version of PTE AV Studio 11 ? There was a known problem with automatic updates in one of the previous releases. It was solved some time ago. Anyway, there is an easy way to install the latest version - 11.0.15. Just download it from WnSoft website: https://www.wnsoft.com/en/pte-av-studio/download/ and install (copy) to Applications folder replacing the old installed version. All your projects, settings, styles and templates will be saved automatically - don't worry! Your license key will work with any version of v11.0.X, including the latest 11.0.15. If you really need a specific old version, I can send it specifically for you. I will glad to help you.

Hi Debbie, We recommend the following solution (for V11): 1. Uninstall PTE AV Studio 11 (remove the program icon to the Trash Bin). 2. Reset settings of PTE AV Studio 11. Download the following special uninstaller and run it. https://files.wnsoft.com/pteavstudio/RemovePTEAVStudio.app-11-0.zip Run this utility. Tick an option 'Reset PTE AV Studio configuration'. Confirm the uninstallation. 3. Install PTE AV Studio 11 again from DMG package to Applications. Download from WnSoft website here. Run PTE AV Studio 11 again. P.S. Your projects will be saved, and not removed after the reinstallation of PTE AV Studio.
