Dynamic link not functional as always

[lavanay]

I'm trying to replace with a composition (or import a composition) with some basic text animations, and everysingle time it results in both after effects and premiere crashing. I've tried updating to the latest version, downgrading versions, starting with fresh a project and i can't seem to find a rhyme or reason for the crashes.

You say 'as always'; have you ever been able to get dynamic link to work, on this system? Millions of users are using dynamic link without issue, so we're hopeful we can get you to a similar place.

Confirming: The contents of the project don't matter, you can get both PPro and AE to crash, 100% of the time?!

Can you provide steps we can follow, to reliably reproduce those crashes?
