AE 2024.6.2 Crashes on launch

I get this error when launching AE: 

After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was: <24820> <DynamicLink> <5> Increase wait time to 2

The program previously worked just yesterday but today I can't even open it. The application crashes before I even have an option to "Reset Preferences" or "Start in Safe Mode." I have uninstalled and re-installed, restarted computer, and updated GPU drivers, but to no avail. Also updated all other Adobe apps, including the CC app. Tried running previous version of AE (23.6.9) and it doesn't work either.
Trying to upload the crash report but this site doesn't support the file format that AE generates, kind of ironic... uploaded a screenshot of what I could, and can provide it if needed for further investigation.
