How to fix AEXD plugin failure and error (48::72) ?

[kai5C32]

I have these popups when I turn on After Effects. May I know are there anywhere I can reinstall the plugins? How can I fix the "Couldn't find main entry point for AEXD.aex (48::72)" error? Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi kai5C32,

Welcome to the community and sorry for your issue.

How do you launch After Effects - by double-clicking a project file or by clicking its icon? What's the exact version of After Effects you're using? Also, have you tried running After Effects as administrator (right click its icon > Run as administrator)

Let us know if it helps.

Thanks,

Nishu

Hi nishu_kush,

Thank you for replying.

I am currently using the After Effects 2020, version 17.0.0. The popups will still pop out even if I launch the program by double-clicking the icon or a project file. I have also tried running the program as Administrator, but it does not seem to work. Are there any links to download the plugins?

Hi there, I'm also having same problem. Does anyone know how to fix?

Hi sir. Did you solve that issue?

[DryreL]

No, I'm still having this issue

[Nik5FEF]

maybe it's a bug of new adobe XD verse? 😞

[DryreL]

It happened after installation of Adobe XD for me. I think it's a bridge script between XD and After Effects, however it does not work. XD has no issue for me, except After Effects bridge. And this is really annoying because everytime when I run the After Effects, I'm waiting for this two error message pop-up...

it solves popup issue but..side by side it generate a new issue which I realise later..

The pluggins Like Animation Composer, Red Giant univers which I Updated or newly added which get removed automatically or gets version downgraded...

I dont know what AEXD.aex exactly does. But after deleting it from C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\Plug-ins\7.0\MediaCore\Public the Popup issue got resolved. Please try it on your own risk.

I relocated the AEXD.aex file elsewhere (just for back-up) It worked!!!
