After Effects keeps showing Crash Repair dialog and won’t launch (Windows 11)
Hi everyone,
I’m having an issue where After Effects won’t launch properly.
Every time I open it, the Crash Repair dialog appears.
No matter which option I choose: Start in Safe Mode, Reset Preferences, Manage Plugins, or Continue, After Effects still fails to launch. When I try to launch After Effects, I can see it appear in Task Manager for about 5 seconds, then it disappears without fully opening.
I’ve already tried:
Running After Effects as Administrator
Uninstalling and reinstalling After Effects multiple times
Restarting my laptop
Unfortunately, none of these solved the problem.
I’m currently on Windows 11 (AMD laptop).
Has anyone experienced this before or knows what else I can try?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Below is a video showing that I selected one of the Crash Repair options, but After Effects still fails to launch.
