Use the Maxon App to update Supercomp.

 

If the up-to-date version of Supercomp is still causing After Effects to quit, disable Supercomp by locating it in Explorer and renaming it from "Supercomp_AE.plugin" to "(Supercomp_AE).plugin".  With current versions of After Effects, adding parenthsis to the plugin file name tells After Effect to ignore the plugin.  If you happen to be running an older version of After Effects, rename the file to "~Supercomp_AE.plugin".

 

There's also "SupercompHelper.plugin".  Change that plugin's name to "(SupercompHelper).plugin" as well.

 

Alternatively, you can disable all of the Red Giant VFX plugins by renaming "Red Giant VFX" to "(Red Giant VFX)".

    Clean out the caches and, most importantly, do delete the actual preferences file in case it got tainted. Just uninstalling doesn't do that. Also of course do a proper cleaning of the caches, temp files and any remnants in the various Adobe folders before reinstalling.
