Hi there,

 

I agree with @ToolfarmJP, it seems to be permission related issue.

Here are the steps to locate the folder and provide permissions:

  1. Open a new Finder window. 
  2. Hold down the Option key, click the Go menu on the toolbar at the top of the screen, and then choose Library. (Library is hidden unless you hold down the Option key.)
  3. Once you are in Library, go to Preferences > Adobe > After Effects > and provide the Read & Write permissions to the 16.1 folder.

Let us know if it helps.

 

Thanks,

Nishu

The cause is the permission of the folder. You move to the folder the error message says and then hit command key + I. You change the setting of everyone to Read & Write.
