my Premiere Pro stopped running any CEP panel..
i ve developed my custom panel from the ProPanel example i found around here, 

suddenly on friday, after monhts of development, they stopped working
It shows up in the menu Window > Extensions > but nothing happens when i click on it. 😞 
 
I tried reverting to older versions, i have at least 10 older versions to my panel that i have been writingfor the past few months but none of them work. 

I reduced the panel to a basic 'hello world' with no functions or  NOTHING at all.
Still not working... I asked my coworkers to test it and it still works on their computers.
I tried reinstalling premier pro, then the whole creative cloud... and nothing changed

i have no idea what going on, pls help!! 
ps.: extensions are authd with the command 

 

defaults write com.adobe.CSXS.9.plist PlayerDebugMode 1

 


Thank you in advance,

What changed about your system configuration, on Thursday? 🙂

The behavior you've described is 100% consistent with PlayerDebugMode not being enabled for the version of CEP in use by PPro. 

Did you recently upgrade from an old version of PPro, on that system? PPro 24.x ships with CEP11, so you'd need to enable debug mode like so (and then relaunch Finder):

defaults write com.adobe.CSXS.11.plist PlayerDebugMode 1

Yeah its definately something related to that authorziation of the unsigned extensions

Sorry i had the command wrong in the first post 
ive use the command suggested in the documentation of the PPro Panel 
https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/Samples/blob/master/PProPanel/ReadMe.md
Which is 

defaults write /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.CSXS.11.plist PlayerDebugMode 1

 
But it definately behaves as if i has never been authorized
Shows in the extensions list but doesnt open up

The solution to this issue will be in figuring out what changed on your system, between Thursday and Friday. 

Did you upgrade PPro? [Related question: Do you have Creative Cloud Desktop set to automatically update apps?]

 

You also mention trying other extensions, so I wanted to confirm; does PProPanel show up correctly, once you've enabled PlayerDebugMode for CEP11 and (important!) restarted Finder?
