Media Encoder crashing when importing AE project (launching two versions of AE??)

Last night AME was working fine. I wake up this morning, try and render and now AME is not working right.

 

Starts up fine, I try and add a composition, which is all going well and then as soon as it says "connected to [project]" in the Import window a crash report for After Effects appears. AME itself doesn't crash, but the import fails. I was watching the task manager as this happens, and for some reason when I import into AME, there are two versions of After Effects starting up in the background - could this be causing it???

 

I've tried importing multiple AE files, even the ones I rendered yesterday and it's still doing it despite it working fine yesterday. I'm using window 10, AE and AME 2020 (Version 14.9)

 

I dont want to update any software as I'm mid-project and I've had bad experiences doing that, so can anyone suggest a solution? Can't understand why it would suddenly stop over night!

Same here - one of the solutions I tried was newer versions of AE but that still gave problems. This got me thinking though - what would affect all versions of AE??? Plugins.

 

I uninstalled AEJuice Pack Manager (not sure if you have it) but it updated last night so I wondered if that had caused it. I then deleted all prefs on AE and AME by using CNTRL+ALT+SHIFT whilst launching each app from the Adobe Creative Cloud app. I'd already done this multiple times but figured one more time wouldn't hurt

Exactly the same by my side. I've just updated the last AE version but it does not solve the issue.

I then shut down my machine properly rather than restart, waited a bit, turned it back on and I was able to render again no issues. Can't say for sure if it was AE Juice but it may be worth trying if you have it.

Having the same issue. As soon as I add a composition to Media Encoder it opens up and then just shows an error.

Tried installing, reinstalling AE and Media encoder. Even reinstalled my nvidia drivers just to be thorough. 

Still no fixes.
