After effects April 2017 update - custom workspace gone - can't save new or reset

[cristianem95048277]

I had a custom workspace that used to work until the latest update a couple of days ago. After rearranging everything again, I'm trying to Save it again but the option is not there. Neither is the Reset option.

Am I missing something??

Thanks

To add, I'm on Windows 10.

to add a workspace choose window in the tool bar the workspaces->save as new workspace. either that or the hamburger icon.

see explanation here: Workspaces, panels, and viewers in After Effects

My question is "Where did the saved workspaces go?" Mine went missing as well. Instead of going through the process of setting up a workspace and saving again, is there an easier way to restore the workspace you had?

Thank you.

The 14.2 update has some new workspace changes that made it so AE couldn't maintain your old workspaces. Granted, you could copy the workspaces across from the old version preferences to the new one, but you risk wiping out the new workspaces that AE added. (We have scopes in the color workspace now and the whole new Essential Graphics workspace.) I just rebuilt my workspaces. I found it a good time to re-evaluate my layouts.
