After Effects Missing Plugins - Missing Folder

[kailah_8577]

I've been getting the following error when opening After Effects:

"After Effects warning: The following plugins have failed to load Please reinstall these plugins:"

The supposed location is not there, and the only found effects are for Premiere and not AE. They also don't show in the effects manager panel to turn off. I don't use them/know what they are for, but it leads to my AE crashing continuously while working. 

I reinstalled AE and deleted my preferences and I'm still having the issue. Running version 25.6 and Red Giant/Universe is updated as well, been an ongoing issue for 4+ months.

Thank you!

Hi,

Thanks for the post and the screenshots you sent. https://adobe.ly/4a0glPM Others have solved this issue by reinstalling Visual C++. See this discussion: https://adobe.ly/4a0glPM. I hope the solution works for you. Please let me know.

Thanks,
Kevin

I am using a 2022 MAC Studio, I can't seem to find a MAC OS version.
