PE15: How to make "Force Selected Project Settings" as default

[deejais1]

Using Premiere Elements 15.  So I have a favorite preset project setting and would like to use it and "Force Selected Project Setting" on every project.  How do I set that preset and the "Force" option as my default so i don't have to click and choose it every time.  Thanks!

Premiere Elements will continue to use the last applied project settings as your default. So, as long as you keep checking the option to Force Settings, you should get the same project settings by default.

Thanks for the reply.

But I want to make even the FORCE SETTINGS box to be checked by default.  Is that possible?

I'm not Steve.  I've never seen that option in the five versions I've used.  I'm sure Steve would have told you how if it was possible.

In addition to Steve's suggestion, you can create a "Default Project" that has your favorite settings.  Additionally it can have some favorite title templates, theme sound tracks or whatever you use to create your "video identity". 

Whenever you start a new project, open "Default Project" and immediately do a Save As with an appropriate name for the new project.

Bill is right. I know of no way to have the Force option checked by default.
