Question

Any file opened from Bridge opens with After Effects

Hi, I have the latest versions of all apps. Since the latest updates, any file that I open from within bridge doesn't open with the native app but instead wit after effects. So when I want to open PSD, PDF, JPG, etc. by double click from within Bridge, After Effect pops up. What can I do? I already deleted the Bridge Cache but it didn't help. Thanks for any advice.

What do the preferences say?

That version of After Effects should solve the issue: Bridge open all types of files in AfterEffects.

Yes, it's a known issue.

A temp solution.

Disable After Effects 2019 startup script in Bridge Prefs in Startup Scripts section.
