After Effects crashes when I try to edit my keyboard shortcuts "After Effects Warning: Invalid Menu Operation"

I migrated my preferences from 25.6 to v26.0. Now I can’t edit my custom shortcuts anymore. “After Effects warning: Invalid menu operation” appears, and then the program crashes. I’ve provided the .txt file that causes this error.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for writing in. Are you on Windows or Mac? I tested the file on my end (on a Mac) and was able to change the shortcuts without any errors.

Let me know.

 

Thanks,

Nishu
