Files and Folders Created For User Profiles
When you create a new user profile, your Avid editing application creates a folder for the user
and two files that are stored within the user folder:
A user profile file (.ave)
A user settings file (.xml)
The user folder and the two files all use the user profile name you provide. The new folder is
stored in the Avid Users folder.
Select Project Dialog Box
The Select Project dialog box lets you find and open a project, create a new project, or establish
user profiles.
