With this new feature, editors can now – more easily than ever – store and share their project files in a common central location and know with certainty that only one editor at a time can open a Premiere Project file with "write" access. Subsequent users are restricted to "read only" access until the first user with "write" access gives up that privilege. EditShare prevents multiple users from obtaining "write" access simultaneously and thus promotes a collaborative workflow that eliminates accidental overwrites.
