After Effect Composition turns black

Hello, I have a problem with my AE composition. I've been importing new layers to my AE composition, however suddenly the composition screen turns black. All the keyframes are still there and as I slide the button across the timeline, I can see the keyframes are still there. I tried undo-ing my steps to see if I made a mistake that rendered the screen all black, but no luck. I assume I might have accidentally clicked a function/view that triggers the screen to turn black, but I'm not sure what function that was. I also first thought I activated the wireframe view but as I switched it back to the normal view, still no luck.

If anybody could help me troubleshoot this problem, that would be great. Thank you so much I'd really appreciate it.

I have this problem since I updated After Effects. All my layers are black. Any idea what it could be?
