I installed Animate CC 2017 and i tried to open it and it always keeps crashing. I moved on from Flash and i wanted to try Animate CC because of the new features in it that flash doesnt have (like parenting, frame picker, a native camera and others). To help here are the specs of my laptop:Model: Positivo Motion C464F (Brazil) RAM: 4GB Storage: 64GB (57GB usable, eMMC type)It always keeps crashing at the “Loading Document Templates” part, even if i want to open a simple FLA (that i think usually skips the start screen)can anyone help?Should i switch back to Flash?

I installed Animate CC 2017 and i tried to open it and it always keeps crashing. I moved on from Flash and i wanted to try Animate CC because of the new features in it that flash doesnt have (like parenting, frame picker, a native camera and others). To help here are the specs of my laptop:

It always keeps crashing at the “Loading Document Templates” part, even if i want to open a simple FLA (that i think usually skips the start screen)
can anyone help?

Should i switch back to Flash?

Animate CC 2017 is just a worse version of Flash CS6. It does not have any of the features you list.

They were introduced with the so-called Advanced Layers in AA 2019 and fully after AA 2020+.

You would do much better going back to Flash and boosting it with EDAP Tools.
