After Effects Dynamic Link Breaks

Since the 2021 update, every time I go to After Effects and back to Premiere, every single dynamic link for every composition pertaining to my project breaks. This isn't just exiting and restarting the program (which should no doubt be fine anyways) but by simply hitting save on After effects and switching the window back to premiere.

This bug is absurd as the compositions need to be re-linked every time and is massively infuriating.

I have implemented a button for a dirty hotfix (to refresh the links).
You cannot relink! (canChangeMediaPath() returns false for ae-links or mogrts)
So I delete the links, and re-import them and insert them again into their positions in the sequences.

it was working just fine, and suddenly stopped, I don't think it has to do with version since its same version that was working earlier... I wonder if I accidentally changed an import setting that affects how links load...

Has anyone found a fix for this? I've had this issue since updating to 2021 and it's making my life miserable.
I've updated to 2022 and its still an issue!!!

This began happening to me as soon as I cleared my media cache in premiere

I'm having this same issue and it simply slows down my workflow which leads to longer work times and essentially costs users and clients money since work can't get done. This really needs to be fixed.

Insanely annoying... everything was fine up until CC 2022 and now it feels like amateur hour every time I open a project. This seems like basic s**t for them to fix...

I also have updated to the latest versions as of November 2021 (22) and is extremely frustrating. Huge time waster.
