# Premiere OS Path Mapper Action

The Premiere OS Path Mapper Action ensures that all paths within a project are mapped correctly, depending on the operating system installed on the workstation that opens the premiere project. This node is necessary if several operating systems are used in the editing environment and you want to avoid manually linking the files in 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:

* [Premiere Version Converter Action](/helmut4-releases/v4.11.0/helmut4-components/streamdesigner/nodes/actions/adobe-premiere-pro/premiere-version-converter-action.md)
* [Premiere Path Settings Action](/helmut4-releases/v4.11.0/helmut4-components/streamdesigner/nodes/actions/adobe-premiere-pro/premiere-path-settings-action.md)
* [Premiere OS Path Mapper Action](/helmut4-releases/v4.11.0/helmut4-components/streamdesigner/nodes/actions/adobe-premiere-pro/premiere-os-path-mapper-action.md)
* [Premiere Generate UUID Action](/helmut4-releases/v4.11.0/helmut4-components/streamdesigner/nodes/actions/adobe-premiere-pro/premiere-generate-uuid-action.md)
* [Project Version of Premiere Condition](/helmut4-releases/v4.11.0/helmut4-components/streamdesigner/nodes/conditions/project-8/project-version-of-premiere-condition.md)
