How to Render with Encoder without Adding to Encoder Render Queue from After Effects.

Question

Morning. I own a PC that has a very very low/unused space on its disk - 3.31GB. At that, it's impossible to install After Effects and Adobe Media Encoder on the Laptop. The only option is to install both Software(AE and Encoder) on an External Disk/Drive.  Having completed a project on After Effects via an external Hard Drive connected to the PC, I cannot Add to Adobe Media Encoder Render Queue because Media Encoder is not installed on the PC - Remember I said I had to install and use both software on an external drive.  Is it possible to save the .aep file, open Adobe Media Encoder, find the .aep file and just render it from there, since I cannot add to Adobe Media Encoder Render Queue directly via After Effects? Unfortunately, it doesn't have the H.264 option, which I'm more familiar with using the CS6 version. Software:Adobe After Effects CC 2019Adobe Media Encoder CC 2019
