I'm not sure how to handle this.  THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING IN AFTER EFFECTS!

 

This morning I opened an AE project that I have been working on for almost a year.  I got a message that it was "verifying" AE2020 then after about five minutes a new splash screen appears with another messgae saying that this projoect was created on a previous version and would I like to upgrade it.  HELL NO!  But if you don't upgrade, it won't open.  If you upgrade the project it appears to open (sigh of relief), but then another message pops up stating that it has some sort of internal error and won't do anything.  

I don't want a work around, I did not want to upgrade, I wasn't informed that it was upgrading unless "veryfying" is a new code word for upgrading, I'm in the middle of a project and WTF am I suppossed to do now!?

    This has absolutely nothing to do with the issues posted here - upgrading to a major new version of After Effects has ALWAYS required a project file created in an old version to be upgraded.

    If you're editing an old version project and for some reason it won't upgrade the file, simply install an older version of AE (alongside the new version) and edit in that.

    Has everything to do with it.  None of these issues were a problem last week.  I'm aware that IF YOU upgrade you need to upgrade the project files.  I didn't upgrade, yet every Adobe application I have was upgraded and every applications has issues.  

     

    As was mentioned previosly, start up in the standard workspace and then switch to a custom workspace and everything appears to work properly.

    What he means is this thread is specifically about the floating panels issue. You should take these issues into a new thread if there isn't one already.
