Animation Preset is Unsupported Filetype

[newmaterial]

1.  Select a text layer.
2. Choose Animation > Browse Presets…
3. In Adobe Bridge, choose a text effect to apply.
    
   Result: ...Error: Can't import file "[name-of-effect.ffx": unsupported filetype or extension. (0::1)

Expected: Animation Preset should be applied. This works as expected (no error) in AE 22 (non beta).
 
System info

Same thing for me, please address this! I have created several of my own presets and can't access any of them.

Hi @newmaterial & @jackthegiantslayer,

Thank you both for reporting this bug. The latest Beta builds ( greater than version 22.4.0.36 ) contain a fix for this issue. Please try applying presets from Bridge again and let us know if you are successful.

Thanks again,

Hi, 

Is it fixed?

Same error message appears in my program.  

' After effests error ; Can't import file "Random Fly off.ffx" ; unsupported filetype or extention. (0::1) '

My AE version is 23.3.0 (Build 53), Br version 03.03.693.

Hi @Claire_naya,

When double-clicking a preset, this error is sometimes shown. The workaround is to use the right-click > Place In After Effects... command instead. Please let us know if that also shows the same error for you. We are continuing to work with the Bridge team for a holistic fix for this issue.
