Whenever I open aftereffects, it pops up with this message saying it couldn’t open GPUSniffer or something. AE has worked fine for about a year, and this is the first time its started happening, but it stops me from getting in or doing anything. 

GPU: AMD Ryzen RX 9060 XT

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D

    Hi there,


    Sorry to hear about the crash. In the crash reporter, can you check "Adobe may contact me for fixes and workarounds at" and provide your email id to it and submit the report? Also, share the email ID with me via DM. That way, we can find your crash report and investigate what's going on.

    In the meantime, try updating the GPU driver if it has not been updated already.

    Looking forward to your response.


    Thanks,

    Nishu
