Media Encoder 2023 just stops

The lastest vesrion just stops constantly. Literally in the middle of jobs it just stops and won't go any further. It is happening across multiple workstations at different locations. No 3rd party plugins. 

We can't get it to link more then one or two jobs from AE. After that they simply won't go over. Even if you close and restart it simply won't accpet the jobs. If you select "Add to render queue" from AE it will load ME but the jobs won't add.

It is literally useless. We are getting maybe 1 out of every 3 or 4 jobs to work.
