I was able to solve this by installing the right driver. I was simply updating Intel drivers instead of NVIDIA drivers a noob mistake of mine. Not sure if that's also the reason for the others with this issue though.

All my friends have this issue, we all have different computer builds. ALL 10 OF US HAVE THE SAME EXACT ISSUE! And the fix adobe tells you to do doesn't even work... WHY have they not fixed this yet. If you continue with known issues, there is a huge performance drop, at least for me... and there a quite a lot of random glitches that happen.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti not supported? Why? This is an up to date graphics card that has been working FINE until today. There goes what little that was left of my client projects in the epidemic.

Having same exact issue. Hardware is:

Really frustrating. I did all the steps, correctly, to update the drivers and when I open either PremierPro, I get the issue. Try again, it works but then reappears for After Effects. "Fix" that, then it doesn't work for PremierPro.

 

I'm on an Alienware 15 R3 Signature Edition laptop

Intel Core i7-7700HQ CUP @ 2.80GHz

16 Gigs of RAM on a 64 bit system

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060

 

Completely capabile of running anything. I usually have Cinema4d (the actual one, not lite) open and PremierPro, Photoshop and sometimes AfterEffects all at once and whenever I'm actually working in either, everything is fine.

 

I would like the actual technical explanation, in NASA terms, why there is even a need for this... what 'new' components or features in After Effects or PremierPro require driver updates?

 

I feel the whole idea of working in Agile has become a falsely believed mantra among so many developers world-wide that the notion of just releasing is more important than developing something that works...100% of time. It's possible. It really is, but line managers, product managers and especially project managers need to step back, have more pride about making stuff that works rather then showing their bosses they got something shipped.

 

Get this addressed. There are really only four flagships: Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects and PremierPro.. in that order, that matter right now.. forget people working on the next Animate, or XD or even InDesign and get the group solving these issues... better yet, be progressive and partner closer with 3rd parties like Intel and NVidia and just have new drivers as part of the actual install.

I am getting the same error.  After attempting a manual driver update, I get a response that I am curremtly running the most recent Display Adapter Drivers.  Pretty much stuck.  Have any Adobe people responded to this?

I had this issue and solved it. I loaded the latest graphics driver and within a few hours the damn warning came back. I Googled ‘after effects disable system compatibility report’ and found a video by the same title right away that showed you how to get to the ‘console’ in AE (and Premiere) (ctl F12 I think) go to the debug choices, search for report.enable and say ‘no’. This is probably not the greatest idea as it is most likely set to ‘yes’ by Adobe for a reason, but the issue was too annoying.

But if you disabled the reports then youare basically "continuing with known issue" so are you having rendering issues or quality issues?? Your idea is sound but not if quality is sacrificed.

This is still happening to me as well, really just want to be able to run AE properly... Have you or anybody else had issues with the program freezing while working for a bit after hitting "continue with known issues"?

Hi and yes, I have a Quadro K3100M with the most recent nvidia drivers as of 2-28-2020 - R418 U8 (426.50)  WHQL. "Continuing with known issues" gives me errors when rendering, as follows...

 

Writing with exporter: H.264
Writing file type: H264
Around timecode: 00:01:17:23 - 00:01:18:09
Rendering at offset: 77.767 seconds
Component: H.264 of type Exporter
Selector: 9
Error code: -1609629695

 

The error code given apparently relates to a Memory Access Error of the GPU Ram.

 

It is a little disappointing that Adobe have done nothing to resolve this issue, especially as there are so many users with the same issue. It's holding up production for many people and they keep fobbing it off, there has been nothing on this thread that resembles any form of attempt on their part to find a solution. This has only been an issue since AE CC 2020 was released.

Hi SamehBijo,

 

Thanks for reaching out. Please share your system specifications (CPU, GPU, RAM, OS version).

Also try to update your Nvidia GPU driver from their website

Let us know if  updating the driver helps.

 

Thanks,

NKush

On open, After Effects prompts for installing an Intel driver to resolve an issue with my unsupported driver "Intel HD Graphics 4600" ... only this GPU is disabled and instead an NVIDIA GPU is being used.

 

However to appease the prompt, I attempted to install the Intel driver that was linked to, however on install, its igxpin.exe driver app prompted "This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software."

 

I then attempted to manually install with these instructions linked to from the driver page. Windows prompted that the existing driver is more current and provided no method to specify the AE recommended driver.

 

So now I'm stuck with this compatibility AE prompt, and also some very mysterious inaccurate CPU usage when running AE. It began exactly after updating to AE 2020 and I've installed nothing else.

 

How should I resolve this? Seems like I should be able to specify somewhere that AE should ignore one GPU and use the other, which it must be anyway, seeing as I disabled the other.
