You can also open a session by double-clicking the .mks file in any file manager (for example,
Windows Explorer) or by dragging and dropping the file from a file manager to Ultra.
By default, Ultra opens a new, blank session. If you prefer to have Ultra open the last session,
choose Tools > Application Settings (or press F3), and select Start Up In Last Session.
To open a recently open session, choose File > Recent Sessions.
Saving a session
To save a session, choose File > Save Session, or press Ctrl+S. The first time you save a session,
a dialog box appears in which you can enter a name for the session and select the location to
which the session is saved.
Saving a session has nothing to do with saving or rendering a composited output movie.

Changing the default session's path
The default folder for saving sessions is \My Documents\Adobe Ultra CS3\My Sessions,
which is also the default path for the Sessions tab. Each time you save a session, the path to
which you save the session becomes the default path for new sessions.
Saving a copy of a session
Saving a copy of a session is an easy way to back up your work or create a new session that uses
some of the same input assignments or settings as an existing session. To make a copy of a
session, choose File > Save Session As, and save the session with a new name or to a new
location.
Working with a session on a different computer
When you copy or move a session from one computer to another, you must transfer the .mks
file and any source files that are used in the session but not included as part of Ultra or an
installed Master Sets Library. The source files must be where Ultra expects to find them.
If sources are in the default, \Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Ultra CS3\Content location, then
Ultra can find them. If the session uses any files that are not stored in the Content folder, then
you must save them to the location with the identical path on the second computer. For
example, if the files were in the Custom Ultra Content folder in My Documents, then you
must replicate the full path, including the username. Alternatively, you can save the files
wherever you want to on the second system, and then reassign the affected sources.
