Ae won’t launch at all
Hi, I was working on a project in AE 2025.6, and I was using the Trapcode plugin (Form Effect) when an error popped up, and my AE crashed and won't get past the splash screen (stuck on intializing required components) and a black line appears around it (I'm assuming from the drop shadow).
I've tried the following options so far:
Removing trapcode
Removing all plug-ins
deleting preferences
starting in safe mode
updating drivers
reinstalling ae
deleting temp files
deleting registry keys
deleting hidden files
trying to use an older version (won't get past the splash screen aswell)
using creative cloud service
and restarting my computer.
etc
I haven't seen anyone with the same problem as me so I'm feeling very discouraged. I recently downloaded ae on my new pc (only 3 weeks old) so if you have a solution that requires me to delete anything I have all files backed up!
Here are my specs:
AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D 6-core processor 4001 Mhz
32gb RAM
1tb storage
windows 11
