A recent issue I’ve had with Premiere Pro CS5 is that it kept on crashing when I tried to save anything.

Here’s the situation I had:

- I had about 10 sequences open
- All sequences were rendered
- No other adobe applications were open
- The computer had been restarted many times
- I’m using Windows 7 64-bit operating system with enough memory and RAM

I searched around a bit and I found a solution for something else which I thought might work.

In your PPro project folders (where you save the project), go to the “Adobe Premiere Preview files” folder and delete everything in that folder.

I know, if you have lots of changes, and graphics, and edits, etc you will be reluctant to delete these but it’s better you do this than waste half a day like I did in trying to figure out what is going on.

When you have cleared these, start up PPro again and this should have cleared up the issue.

I hope this helps you as much as it did me and no doubt, no 1 solution is suitable for everyone’s situation but it all helps right?
