# Premiere Generate UUID Action

With the help of the Premiere Generate UUID Action, it is possible to create a Unique Premiere Project ID and use it for a newly created project. All you have to do is enter the Helmut4 Project ID in the node. Helmut4 creates a new ID and uses it automatically for the project.

Before any manipulation of the project file is executed, a backup of the project file will be created with the extension '\*.prproj\_backup'. If the manipulation encounters an issue, such as creating a 0 KB project file, the backup file will be used to replace the corrupted file.

The prproj\_backup file is created by the following nodes:
