Black video after rendering in After Effects CC v15.1.2

[Raven 6]

I need help. I'm editing in After Effects CC v15.1.2 and after the latest update I get black video after rendering the timeline. After Effects and rendering worked fine before the lates update. I'm editing on an PC HP z800 on Windows 7. I've read through the comments under "black video" after rendering and saw by exporting to Media Encoder is a work around. Unfortunately, Media Encoder says it's unavailable for my system. So, my rendering has to be done through AE. I've tried exporting multiple formats, (.png, AVI, and quicktime) with all the same black video results after rendering. I've included screen grabs of my timelines for your information to help fix my issue. THANKS

Problem fixed! I had to turn off "Guide Layers" withing the layer settings in the timeline. After I turned the guide layers off on each, the render went through fine.
