Video 9 - Removing Old Work

[paul85]

I have VS 9, and have finished several projects. Whereas the program itself is on my C drive, all the work was captured onto my special E drive. I need to be shown a quick and efficient way to removed all my old work before I go on to my next project. Thanks in advance.

Umm... select all the relevant files on E:\ and press DEL ...???

If your working folder (File > Preferences) has been set to E:\, that should get rid of everything. Otherwise, you would need to clean out remaining files (e.g. project *.vsp files) from the default working folder which is in your My Documents folder on C:\MyDocuments\Ulead VideoStudio\10.0.

And if you created a separate library pane for your project within VS10, then go to the Library Manager and delete the sub-folder you created.

You might want to consider saving all your "old work" before moving onto the next project. A discussion on archiving your files can be found here http://www.seedwiki.com/wiki/video_stud ... pid=194534

Archiving can be a real life saver sometimes - for example, I recently (well 4 months ago now) discovered the TRUTH ABOUT DVD BLANK QUALITY (see http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm) and found to my dismay that much of my video projects had been done using poor quality (throw it in the trash can quality) DVDs. So I immediately went back and found many of my videos were nolonger viewable - some of the work I managed to recover using archival disks I had created, others I found the archive disks had deterioted as well and so I was forced to redo the entire project from scratch i.e. capture, edit, render and burn.

So a good backup of your work can be priceless - and well worth the effort and cost of creating!
