Connecting to Dynamic Link server takes forever Premiere Pro

[Josvi]

I have both Premiere Pro and After Effects on the lastest version, and use it on Windows 11.

My editor recently edited a video for using some AE effects, but I needed to change a few things on Premiere Pro but eveytime I try to open the project, it pops up a message saying "connecting to dynamic link server", and it simply never stops loading.

I really need to solve this as soon as possible, would appreciate some help!

Hi Josvi,

We're sorry about the poor experience. Is this happening with any specific project or all the projects? Also, in which version of Premiere Pro & After Effects were these projects created?

Thanks,

Sumeet

Update:

I was able to solve the issue by (for some reason) turning off my firewall before openning AE & Premiere Pro, with the firewall turned off, the connection to the dynamic link server loaded in 5 seconds.

After that, I turned the firewall back on and it is still working.

Anyways, thank you for those who tried to help me!
