    Try to clean install the application using Adobe Cleaner tool https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/kb/cc-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html

    After this install the Adobe Application Manager https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-suite/kb/aam-troubleshoot-download-install.html

    Then try to install the latest version of After Effects in your computer through Creative Cloud app.

    Why are you creating a CEP folder in the first place?

    Why are you using that old version of AE? 

    Knowing what you're actually tring to do might help us find a better answer for you.

    I tried to make a CEP folder because it should've appear naturally when AE gets installed. I needed that folder to add an extension to AE and i use an old version because most likely my laptop will give me bunch of errors if i try to update it, so i stick to CC 2017.
