Sorry for your issue, Mohammad271957375s84.

As Mylenium said, we'd need more details in order to troubleshoot the issue properly.

  • What are your system specifications (CPU, GPU, RAM, OS version)?
  • What's the exact version of After Effects you're using?
  • Does it happen with all the projects? Could you test in a new project with different footage?

Let us know, we're here to help.

 

Thanks,

Nishu

Without any system info, details about your project and other specifics we cannot tell you much. Start by reinstalling AE with sufficient user privileges. Anything else will require much more details.

Hi! 

I am facing the same problem of: error in after effects: this effect cannot be applied because it cannot be initialized. 25::3 when I try to use the copilot video orb plugin. The problem happens every time I try to apply the plugin to any type of object. My PC is a 3rd generation Intel i7, 16 GB of ram. You currently do not have a video card.
