Q: Apple presets are duplicated on every program launch

Hi, I am running compressor 3.5.3 and every time I launch the program all the Apple presets are duplicated in my custom presets folder. I delete these every time but on the next launch, they are back. Any fixes out there?

 

Thanks!

Compressor, Mac OS X (10.6.7), Compressor 3.5.3

    You mean the folders located at: User Name/Library/Application Support/Compressor?

     

    They are supposed to be there. A fix is not neccessary.

    In any case, those items are "Aliases" not the originals, which are contained within the Compressor application bundle. Aliases only take 4kb of space each on your hard drive.

    Okay, that was a simple fix. I deleted the Aliases in that folder and it cleaned up the Settings Bin in Compressor. Aparently deleting a folder within Compressor which in reality is an Alias does not work. Thank you for the quick reply. Cheers
