Hi,

I have a problem with After Effects. I have Creative Suite CS4. I can open PS, Illustrator, Premier pro, etc., but when I want open After Effects there isn't show anything, but when I open Task Manager I see there After Effects as one of the background processes.

I reinstall the whole suite two times, but still the same issue.

I have win 10 home (last updated today)

AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1950X

32 GB memory

GTX 660 (newest drives installed yesterday)

Please help.

Thanks Mario

This occasionally happens and I THINK this is due to the Dynamic Link Manager. All you need to do is to select the AE Process in Task Manager and exit AE from there. Adobe Premiere Pro may also occassionally exhibit the same behavior and the solution is the same as I alluded earlier.

Hi Roland,

Sadly it's not working. I see AE in Task Manager (opened in the background process only). I can close it but AE always opens as a background process. Other applications like PS open without any problem.

Hi,

Here is PrintScreen from my Task Manager. As you can see PS and AI open correctly, but AE opens as a background process. Still working on processor around 3,7%, high energy consumption, but can't open.
