Open Recent list is empty after restart
All,
I was having some issues with PT 2020 and I mistakenly ran one of those PT Prefs clearing programs a while back. Ever since then my "open recent projects" list defaults to two sessions on my computer after every restart and ignores what I have been recently working on. Strangely, both of those sessions are on my OS drive and not my live audio drive (one is on the desktop and one is in my downloads folder). After each restart that list is cleared and only those are left. I have reinstalled PT 2020 and the problem persists. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this? Its not a major problem, but is rather annoying. Thanks, Ryan www.RyanSchwabe.com |

Re: Open Recent list is empty after restart
This is just a guess, but since you trashed preferences Perhaps you need to reset the storage location in the DashBoard dialog box (formally Quick Start dialog Box) You can reset this in the "Create" selection.
Check the "Location" at the bottom of window is actually pointing to where your sessions are supposed to be stored and not defaulted to Mac HD This may or may not effect the Recents but worth a try.

Re: Open Recent list is empty after restart
What is that?
Apple has never sold 18-core Mac Pro, you must mean 28-core if you mean the latest generation tower..? But that would be 2.5GHz not 3.2GHz, so if your CPU is 3.2GHz then it should be 16-core, assuming latest generation -- otherwise you have such a hack I have no idea. Or maybe iMac Pro?

Re: Open Recent list is empty after restart
Maybe check if it’s anything to do with the OS recent files number?

Re: Open Recent list is empty after restart
Thanks, I moved the cards around, checked the pref -> gen recent files number. Still no luck. Is there an effective way to clear preferences with PT 2020? I feel like some databasing file is missing from my Audio drive because it remembers new sessions that are created in the OS drive.

Re: Open Recent list is empty after restart
You trashed Preferences. That clears the Recent List. I f you didn't copy off your Preferences and then restored them, there will be nothing in the Recent List. And you've also lost any other Preference setting that isn't the default.
Since you're on Mac, search the forum for Pete Gate's Preference Helper.
