Hi there,Sorry to hear about your problem!Thanks for providing the screenshots.I'd recommend that you use the Adobe CC Cleaner tool to uninstall After Effects CC 2018 and Adobe Media Encoder CC 2018 and then reinstall both apps.Use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems I'm sorry but you can't install After Effects CC 2018 (15.0.0) anymore. The Creative Cloud app will allow you to install the latest version of any app, not the patch releases like 15.0.1.Thanks,Rameez
