After Effects 24.0.3 Kernel Panic on Sonoma 2019 Intel Macbook
As title states - been having this issue since updating OS. After Effects will randomly freeze the whole OS and my Mac will blackscreen to a "your mac has shut down because of a probelm". When restarted, After Effects will not open: giving me a window about preferences. It will take me roughly 6 attemps every time to have this message stop so I can actually boot the programme again. Tried the fixes about document acess in another thread, but this was not needed as permissions were already granted.
Done a fresh install of Sonoma and wiped all files, and all aplications. Still hasn't fixed the issue.
Specs if they help: 2.4 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9, AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 8 GB, 32 GB 2667 MHz DDR4
