hi everyone, so I just purchased after effects 2020, since I have had after effects 2017 for a long time now. however, whenever I try to render my footage, after effects stops the rendering and then automatically restarts my computer. it doesnt save anything, which I find frustrating due to the fact that I cannot help it from happening. this has never occured in after effects 2017
here is my system info:
After Effects 2020
MacBook Air
MacOsCatalina v10.15.5
processor: 1.6 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5
Ram: 8GB

Start by turning off the various hardware acceleration settings. CC 2020 is buggy as heck, even more so on Macs, it appears, and likely leaks in that department cause overheating or any such thing and your system crashes.

hi mylenium,
i have turned off my video rendering GPU acceleration and changed it to mercury software only, and that hasn't changed anything, are there any other hardware acceleration settings that I should know of or turn off?

Hi innocentuser,
Sorry for your issue. I see that you are having trouble when you export from After Effects.
Is it happening with a particular project or all of them? Are you using any third-party plug-in? Also, what happens if you export using Media Encoder?
We're here to help, just need more info.
Thanks,
Nishu

Nishu, I am using the plugin sapphire for most of my projects, and this happens on all of them. I don't have media encoder but when I download it, my after effects doesn't start up

Sorry for the delay in response. Could you try removing the plug-in from the project and then export? It'll help us to understand if it's plug-in related.
Let us know.
Thanks,
Nishu
