Click on the create button, then go to files.
Under files, find a tab known as project settings and then make your way to Scratch Disks.
Change the Scratch Disks into the Scratch Disk folder within the project folder. Change for all, not one.
Once in the premiere working space, press the tilde key in case you wish to make any window bigger. Same key should return a window back to its normal size.
To change from one window to another, click on Window tab/menu on Premiere and select whichever window you wish to view.
The windows can be readjusted by dragging the edges of the windows.
