2019.1 Create Editable Text Crashing half the time

So i have a PSD from a client that has a bunch of text layers. I just realized you could "convert to editable text" in AE, never used that feature. First couple times, boom, works swimmingly. Other times, it will crash it entirely. I've just gotten used to saving and trying it, but is there a situation in which one works and another doesn't?

    The last post in the link OussK provided, from a user, claims the crash does not occur when the Command to Change to Editable Text is selected via the AE's main menu - the crash occurs when using right-click on the PS Text Layer. Can you confirm these?

    Thanks. I checked this link. There are only two fonts in the doc, and it works and crashes with both of them.  It also works and crashes within the same psd.

    I forgot to include that I'm using this on my Win10 computer in case it's relevant.
