After effects warning: classfactory cannot supply requested class

[Jordan.jpg]

Hi, i am currently using After Effects 2022 and I've been using it for more than a year now, but recently about 2/3 weeks ago i havent been able to import files or practically do anything on after effects, as well as adobe premiere pro because of this error: "After Effects Warning: classfactory cannot supply requested class". And i assume this is the exact same issue with adobe premiere pro, just that the error is worded differently on that app. If anyone knows what this means or knows how to solve it, I'd greatly appreciate the help

I've not heard of this issue before, but I checked the forums and found this post:

It's not the best solution I'm afraid, but the OP reported it worked.
