Scripts no longer working in AE 17.1.3

Hey there!
I have a variety of scripts that I run in AE that have, until very recently, run without issue. The scripts I run are the following:
- Butt Capper

- Ease Copy

- Key Fast

Now, when I go to run these scripts, I get a variety of assorted error messages. See the attached screenshot for the exact messages.

I'm currently running AE 17.1.3 on macOS Catalina 10.15.6. I can't figure out if it's the update to AE that has broken my scripts or if an update to iOS is the culprit.

 

I've uninstalled and reinstalled AE, deleted and reinstalled the scripts, and I'm still getting the same errors. My other thought at the moment is to revert AE back to a previous version to see if that fixes things.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

many time script may not work on the new version of AE and required some update from the developer, so yes try to install an older version of AE and check if this can help you

Sometimes a script also breaks something im the scripting engine that causes other scripts to stop working.


To figure out if this is the case you need to
1. close all scripts and extension panels you have open in your user interface
2. restart Ae
3. try if your scripts are work now

If, say Butt Capper is working when being launched as the very first script, then try to launch the other scripts one by one and after each one try to launch Butt Capper again. If Butt Capper stops working after a specific other script was launched, you know that this other script is the bad guy who causes all the trouble.
