Starting a few days ago, adobe apps are creating log files to the project path every time I save:

11:09:12:554 [CRITICAL] SharedConnection - Failed to open WinHTTP Session. The parameter is incorrect. , last error code = 87 11:09:12:554 [ERROR] Failed to Configure Secure Protocols. WinHTTP Incorrect Handle Type. last error code = 12018

I'm guessing this has something to do with the patching preventing Adobe from connecting to it's servers but it seems odd that it only started up recently.

The apps are working and saving correctly but seems strange.

Same here, not sure what's going on. I'm also getting .prin files alongside them (which I think are for the new Media Intelligence thing, but still seem to clutter up the project folder more). If they're normal and needed files, I'm not sure if we could move/organise them to a different folder instead. If not now, hopefully one day ๐Ÿคž

Since we are not Adobe Support, you can find answers directly from official resources.

What is a .prin file? and Media intelligence and Search panel FAQs

.prin files are part of Adobe's Media Intelligence feature. They act as index files, storing visual analysis data for all video clips in a project, enabling easier searches via Adobe's AI-powered Search Panel.

How to Disable Media Intelligence Indexing in Premiere Pro

  • Export Screen: Toggle off the indexing option in the right-hand menu.

  • Preferences: Go to Preferences > Media Intelligence and disable indexing.

  • Clear Media Cache: This may help prevent .prin files from reappearing.
