Team Project won't open in After Effects but will open in Premiere
Hi there--
I've encountered a bug while working on a team project with some coworkers. We're been editing in Premiere and adding in motion graphics through After Effects as usual, but have recently found that After Effects will no longer load up when we try to open the team project through it. The program will begin to load, but gets stuck on this step:

The odd thing is that we are able to still open up the Team Project through Premiere without getting stuck on this step, but we're completely locked out of AE. Luckily we have been doing local backups every night in case of something like this happening, but I'm at a loss for what to do.
I've reset preferences, tried starting it up in Safe Mode, recreated the Team Project as a new file, and reinstalled AE. Everytime it's the same; It'll open in Premiere but not AE. I've tried accessing older TeamProjects through AE and they're able to open, so I have no idea why this one would be any different. It is making it impossible to collaborate with my remote team, but I haven't been able to find any solution anywhere else on the Adobe forums. Anyone have any ideas?
I am working on Windows 11 with AE 24.3
