AME recently stopped working for me. It will launch when I queue a project to be exported, however, the project won't show up in AME so I can start the export process. I've searched and tried everything I can find with regards to fixing AME but still not working. I see a lot of posts about AME not working throughout the Internet with a few suggestions to fix but nothing seems to work with any regularity with anyone.
When it stopped working, I hadn't made any changes to my computer (iMac OS 10.11.3) or to my Adobe apps (I'm a CC subscriber). There was an update to PP and AME available, which I downloaded/installed but still not working.

I can think of one possibility but as you've not listed what you've done, I of course have no idea if you've already done this.
Which would be ... download the Adobe CC Cleaner Tool here:

Now, using that app, uninstall & "clean" out AME, then reboot the computer. Using the CC Desktop app, download/install a fresh copy of AME.
Sometimes the apps lose track of each other due to corruption or something, and this might
...I was getting SO frustrated because AME suddenly stopped working. I updated everything etc, but the solution was that the Queue panel of Media Encoder closed somehow, so I couldn't see the projects I was sending from After Effects. Once I reopened the queue everything was there! (and like 35 compositions waiting to be renderered because I tried it so many times out of frustration)

If your AME not encoding, rendering, exporting, download Adobe CC Cleaner Tool, fresh install AME and AE, re-open queue panel of media encoder or downgrade it to the older version. In case, you're still unlucky, you need try more methods to fix this issue or to tackle AME gets crash importing video error.

I had this problem after the most recent update (in 2021). I did a couple of simple things, not sure which did the trick, but I got it working again. 1) In AE, go to Edit > Purge > All Memory & Disk Cache; 2) Uninstall AE and ME, reinstall; 3) Restart computer. A pain in the neck, but I got things working in less than 30 min. Hope that helps.

Try using the Mercury Playback Engine Software Only option when rendering rather than the GPU acceleration option. Worked for me.
