After Effects crashing every time I run a script that requires network access for license auth

[sooperturkey]

When using AE 22.0.1 on macOS Monterey, the app hangs and crashes every time I try opening a *.jsxbin that requires network access for licence authentication (I have network access enabled for scripts in my preferences). Scripts that were free, or don't require any licence don't seem to have any issues. What could be the problem here?

I'd recommend contacting support on the site you got them from.

Are these installed in the ScriptUI Panels folder and launched from the Window menu? Does it make any difference if you install it directly in the Scripts folder and run it from the File > Scripts menu? Are you on an Intel Mac or an M1 Mac?

I have exactily the same issue on an M1 mac Monterey 12.1, After Effects 22.1.1 and 18.4.1

If these are scripts from aescripts, does it work if you hold down the Option and Shift keys while launching the script?
