After Effects start-up error (127) - plug-in "PremiereProImport.aex" could not be loaded

[mikaell11838428]

Hello. After updating to the most recent Adobe After Effects and Adobe Premiere versions, I am getting this new error whenever I try to launch AE.

Error:

After Effects error: plug-in "PremiereProImport.aex" could not be loaded (127).

( 48 :: 46 )

Note: Whenever I click File -> Import -> Adobe Premiere Pro Project, I can successfully import the project (no error message or anything)

My drivers are all up to date, and I haven't tried a suggestion I found that says to "Delete "PremiereProImport" plugin file from C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CC 2017\Support Files\Plug-ins\Format\PremiereProImport folder." I 100% do not want to reinstall Adobe After Effects because I am on a limited data plan and do not want to lose data over a bug that I could potentially fix without wasting as much data as downloading AE again.

Please help, thanks.

I know you said you didn't try the suggestion to delete the file. That makes sense. Instead, just try moving that file out somewhere else (like to your desktop). That way, if something goes wrong, you can just put it back!

Let us know how it works.
