Good afternoon Adobe Community, So basically ever since I installed the latest version of After Effects which is 20.1 it has been laggy and slow whenever I use the toolbar to move something, type something, or even use the pen tool this is annoying because I checked my laptop, OneDrive and my Disk storage and they're all good so I have no idea as to why this is happening and I would love it if someone could tell me how to fix this immediately because like I said its annoying and frustrating so if anyone knows a solution PLEASE reply back to me ASAP. There is a screen recording below that I have provided if needed to get more clairty of the situation.

 

Thank you so much in advance,

 

Sincerely, Veda

I have the exact problem. Slow and lagging. The sound is terrible.

Please give us system specs. I'd also try to purge media and disk cache.

What do you mean by System Specs? Also, are the system specs for AE or my laptop? How would I find those exactly? How do I purge media and disk cache exactly?
