Hello. I am not very technical with this stuff so please feel free to ask any questions, as long as it can help me fix the problem.
I was downloading a few plugins today for After Effects (I'm running After Effects 23.0.0.59). But after I installed the Trapcode plugin, it wouldn't run and kept on giving me crash logs that would automatically be added on my desktop. Because it happened once the plugin was installed, I thought that was the source of the problem, so I removed anything Trapcode related that I had just installed to see if it would work. Unfortunately it hasn't, and after doing some research on this problem, I still couldn't find any fixes. In the thread it mainly shows .dll files, so I'm wondering if that had anything to do with the crashes.
This is the main part of the crash log (which appears every time I try to run After Effects)

I'm not sure if this was the correct place to go, maybe a tech forum would also be helpful. If you guys think it would be more helpful please let me know, I only want to get this resolved. And as I mentioned before, please let me know if you need anymore information to help me resolve this issue. It]
