Useful for us: once you have Premiere set up and running
properly, go into the Premiere program file and place
there a copy of the prem50.prf file named
"prem50.prf.STANDARD". If things go awry, go into the
file and name the current file "prem50.prf.OLD", copy
the ".STANDARD" version, and remove the ".STANDARD",
and you have restored Premiere without having to reset
everything including the screen layout...
