Simple Number Counter Issue

I've managed to create a simple counter in after effects which goes from 0 to 7077 which is great. However at the end of my animation, it always reverts back to 0? I can't figure out how to change it. Can anybody help please? I just need it to stay at the end number.

If your counter is nothing but a slider with Math.round() applied then you have 3 keyframes in the timeline. Delete the last keyframe by pressing 'u' to reveal the keyframes on the text layer, use the J or K keys to jump to the previous or next keyframes. When you get to the third keyframe that returns the slider to zero, delete that keyframe.

Thanks! That unfortunately still doesnt work it just deletes the counter itself as i can only see 2 keyframes, not 3.

Without any info on how you actually created the counter we can't realyl tell you how to fix your issue. You need to be much more specific.

I followed this youtube tutorial, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9nzgL-aCGw

 

I just added the slider expression. This is what it looks like if it helps.
