Hello Community,
After Effects is yet again getting stuck on the Launch/Splash Screen after ''Initializing MediaCore".
I'm running AE 2025, but this exact bug has happened with previous versions.
- I have uninstalled and reinstalled AE
- I have reset prefs
- started in safe mode
- disabled plugins
- I do NOT have norton or any other antivirus installed.
- It is not a firewall issue.
- It is not a connection issue. I have gig speed internet
- I have updated nvidia drivers and I have also tried rolling back nvidia drivers
- I have rolled back to a different version of AE. Nothing works!!! There is no crash log because i have to force quit the app.
The only thing that does work is to reformat the machine but that is not a viable option and i am not doing that again.
@Adobe we pay too much money for a creative cloud licesnse for this to keep happening, this is unacceptable! We need a definitive solution for this issue. I see this same issue throughout the community with no clear and concise solution. What is going on?
I and the community have encountered this bug multiple times without any clear way to solve it.
Please, please, help!
