I upgraded from C12 to C14. When I try to save a project as a template, C14 is opening the C12 Project Template location instead of C14. I can only see the templates in my C12 folder in the Save As Template window. How can I fix this? Is there some filepath in C14 which is looking at the old C12 folders? Thank you
How do you know it is the C12 Template location? It doesn’t say in the “Save as Template” Window where it is going to save the template (the default is “%APPDATA%\Steinberg\Cubase 14_64\Project Templates” on Windows, no idea where on Mac, but there is a support article on the Steinberg site about default locations).
Edit: A new Cubase version copies the settings from an older version on first start, including the template folder. So maybe you are just thinking it is the old location because your templates from C12 have been copied over?
I navigate to both the C12 and C14 Project Template folders and the templates I can see on the SAVE AS TEMPLATE window in C14 correspond to those in the C12 Project Template folder (NOT the C14 one), so the only assumption is that it is looking at the wrong folder.
I have saved down multiple test templates and when I open the SAVE AS TEMPLATE window in C14 no of these show up, only the templates I can see in the C12 folder.
I’m having the same issue (except with C13). When trying to save a project as a template, C14 is opening the C13 project template location instead of C14. Odd!
I believe that your assumption is wrong, but the best way to check it in a reliable way is to use the Show in Explorer option, after right-clicking on any of the already saved templates listed.
When using this command, I get the following path (Cubase pro 14.0.10 / Windows 10 22H2) :
C:\Users\[userName]\AppData\Roaming\Steinberg\Cubase 14_64\Project Templates
What actually happens (at least, on my end and obviously, on @fese one also) is that, at each Cubase upgrade, the user defined templates are copied from the previous dedicated folder that contains them to the same one for the next generation. I have all Cubase generations still installed from 10.5 to 14, so I’ve been able to check this easily.
EDIT - if you really get a path pointing to your C12 installation folder while using C14, try to relaunch it in safe mode, using the Disable program preferences option, as I would guess that something went fishy in your preferences file(s).

Hi,
I have even a stranger problem with C14 template saving. When I decide to save a new template the window shows the list of templates that were deleted a while ago. So, I save the new template and it does not show on this list. It shows when I open C14, but the list in the window for saving a template does not show the new template, only stubbornly shows these old, non-existent templates. Clicking on “reveal in Finder” obviously gives nothing. I went backwards to C13 and C12, removed all templates, yet still the list populated by these non-existent templates. I also went to Media Bay, found Project Templates folder containing these old templates, deleted them all, but nothing changed. To make thing even more strange, the folder itself allows for revealing in Finder as well as for view refresh and disk rescan. Revealing in Finder shows proper folder content, first rescan added the existing templates to these old ones, view refresh removed the existing ones and the whole situation returned square one - only old, nonexistent templates are displayed.
Anyone experienced the same? Found a solutions?
Any hint here will be appreciated.
