This feature will be added in a future version. For now you can use this workaround: create a Temporary Sequence and import inside all the sequences you want to select. Then in PlumePack select this Temporary Sequence as the Main sequence and launch the process."
On Windows you should run your cmd.exe or Powershell in Administrator Mode, then run PlumePack installer executable with the /S argument, for example in Powershell : ./"PlumePack v1.0.0 Installer.exe" /S if you're in the extracted folder from the downloaded zip. Same goes for the uninstaller but you'll also need to specify the -Uninstall_PlumePack argument. If you want to be sure that the installer / uninstaller exit automatically without user confirmation you should run the .exe like this instead start "Autokroma" /wait /b "PathToInstallerOrUninstaller.exe" /S
Our installers are not viruses, but some AntiVirus software (Windows Defender, Norton AV, McAfee, Bitlocker etc.) sometimes produce false positive because of their probabilistic detection algorithms and the fact that we're using a very common library to create our installers. We regularly check our installers with VirusTotal.com too and there are never more than 1 or 2 AV producing a false positive. If that happens to you, please report this as a false positive to your AV software vendor ! You can disable the AV for the installation process, then re-enable it.
No ! PlumePack makes a copy of your project, so your original project will not be modified, and your original media will never be modified or removed by PlumePack !
You can only continue editing other projects, but not the current project ! The PlumePack process could fail to relink the files at the end if you modify the project.
The AE Comp .aex file is well copied and replaced in the new PlumePacked project. The media dependencies of this AE comp (imported media in After Effects) are well copied in the same subfolder next to the .aex file but are not replaced in the AE comp.Find all PlumePack limitations in this article
PlumePack will rename the file is there is any conflict, so you will get a filename.ext and a filename_1.ext. This situation happens if you have 2 media with the same filename, and PlumePack consolidates them in the same folder.
No, PlumePack can only copy or Trim your media. By Trimming, you keep the same codec, metadata and pixel quality. However, you can use PlumePack to clean/filter your project first (because it gives you better features than the native Project Manager for that) and select the "No Process" Main Media Process. Then use the native Project Manager to transcode your cleaned project !
PlumePack copies your media files following your Project Bins structure ! So your final Disk structure will be more organized than having everything in the same folder ! With PlumePack Premium you can also choose to use the Disk Data Structure of your files to organize your PlumePacked Project. Full comparison with the Project Manager in this article.
PlumePack copies the media dependencies of the AE comps (imported media in After Effects) into the same subfolder next to the .aex file. Those files are not replaced in the AE comp though and you will need to relocate manually in AE. The aex file itself is well copied and replaced in your premiere pro project.

PlumePack copies and replace the Aaegraphic/MOGRT in your destination folder. It also detects if another media is used inside this Aegraphic and it is also copied and replaced. Full comparison with the Project Manager in this article.
With PlumePack you can choose one sequence and consolidates your project from this "Main" sequence. All nested sequences will be taken into account recursively. If you need to select many "Main Sequences", you can create a new sequence, put your "Main Sequences" inside, and PlumePack this new sequence.

Yes totally ! The native Project Manager and PlumePack are independent, and PlumePack is far more stable than the native solution. If you just need to copy your files, the PlumePack FREE version could be enough for your needs ! Note that PlumePack can't transcode your media. If you need to save some disk space, consider buying a PlumePack Premium license and trim your files without re-encoding ! Full comparison with the Project Manager in this article. If you still want to use the Project Manager (maybe because Transcoding is important for your workflow), here are the following advices to make it work :
Uncheck "Include Audio Conform Files"
Uncheck "Include Preview Files"
Delete all your proxies
Check if you have special characters in your video/photo/work files naming like "+", "#", "$", ...
Yes! PlumePack will move the entire tracks, not only clips on the tracks. This means that all audio effects and associated automation / key-framing will move along with the tracks.
Please try to open it directly by double clicking on the following file in your computer (you will need to restart Premiere Pro once modifications are done from here)
