Adobe Premiere "Pro" Is Such A Sorry POS Software (01)

 Premiere is so crappy it's unbelievable.

I'm trying to reload a simple project from 8 years back (2017.) Premiere forces to save a new version, fine. Premiere hangs trying to locate the media, with no indication of what it's doing whatsoever, sitting there doing nothing, forever. Not fine!

Fuck Premiere. Hit Cancel, Premiere is missing all the media, opens the Link Media window, fine. If I try to locate media, Premiere hangs miserably after relinking the first media. Super!

Fuck that, hit Cancel.

OK the project opens with all the media offline, at least that. Then "Upgrade Legacy Title" message pops up "The Legacy Titler is no longer supported. Premiere Pro (cringe) will convert each legacy title into a Source Graphic, and all timeline instances will be replaced." Oh great! Click OK.

Relinking the very first clip in the timeline manually, click OK. This is working, great, only 20 or so more clips to relink in this timeline.

Let's try to relink them 20 all at once... Select, select, locate the first file, click OK. The fucking beach ball from hell... Waiting, waiting, waiting, nothing happens, waiting, waiting, waiting, beach ball spinning, waiting, waiting, waiting...

Fuck you Premiere.

Force Quit. So now what? I have to relink clips one by one? What a joke. "Premiere Quit Unexpectedly". Oh really?

Reload the freaking project, again stuck locating media. Click Cancel again. Showing again the link Media window, Cancel.

Selecting the first clip, relink, fine. Select the second clip, relink, hangs! Beach ball of hell, nothing happens.

Fuck this!

Nothing works, what a fucking joke.

Deleting all Media Cache file.

Going into the Finder, media files, deleting all the stupid ".pek" and ".pkf" files by hand.

Relinking one clip at a time, by hand. Great time saver, thank you Adobe!
