Check your GPU compatibility with the Advanced 3D renderer, which is the engine that helps AE work with 3D models. I was having the same issue and then saw that my GPU is not compatible!

Thank you, this seemed to be my issue. The required VRAM for the new 3D engine is 4GB and i had just 2GB. I got a new computer with more VRAM and it works now.
