Export via Media Encoder Failing

Hi all,

I'm working on a project in both AE and Ch. I tried exporting from Ch via Media Encoder but it keeps failing. I confirmed that Media Encoder still works from AE. I saw that I had had two versions of Ch installed, so I uninstalled the old version and made sure that the versions of Ch and ME match. Now I don't get the error message to install Media Encoder but every attempt at a render, no matter the format, still fails.

Out of desperation, I tried dragging and dropping the scene into AE to use it as a dynamic link even though I know that would cause a lag that isn't worth it, but even that isn't working, so I think the issue must be in Character Animator.

Any help is appreciated!

In case anyone's interested, I think there was a glitch in one Ch file (that I had saved on dropbox instead of locally as I usually do) and it was causing all of Character Animator to have a tantrum even if I was trying to open a different file. I deleted the folder of that project and now it seems to be working, thank G-d.

I uninstalled and reinstalled Ch and now it won't read my project at all. I tried creating a new one and importing the same Ps files to work with but I keep getting this
