    Please try those procedures below.

    #1. From Media Encoder's preferences > Media, pease take a note of the locations of "Media Cache Files" and "Media Cache Database" indicated there.  Once you quit all Adobe applications, please go to this location and delete folders called "Media Cache Files", "Media Cache" and "Peak Files".

    #2. If #1above didn't help, clearing preferences may help.  While holding the shift key, please launch Media Encoder.  For Premiere Pro, please hold Alt (Win) or Option key (Mac) and launch Premiere.  This clears the preferences.  To be safe, please quit and do a normal launch after clearing the preferences.

    Hope this helps.
