After effect cc new composition won't open

Frustrating! Don't worry, I'm here to help you troubleshoot the issue. Here are some steps to help you resolve the problem:

  1. Check for updates: Ensure that you're running the latest version of Adobe After Effects CC. Sometimes, updates can resolve issues like this. Go to Help > Check for Updates.
  2. Restart After Effects: Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve the issue. Close After Effects and reopen it.
  3. Check for corrupted files: Corrupted files can cause issues with opening compositions. Try deleting the composition file and recreating it. You can do this by going to File > New > Composition, and then selecting the same settings as the original composition.
  4. Check the composition settings: Ensure that the composition settings are correct. Go to Composition > Composition Settings and check the settings, such as resolution, frame rate, and duration.
  5. Check for conflicts with other plugins: Sometimes, plugins can cause conflicts that prevent compositions from opening. Try disabling all plugins and then try opening the composition again. If it opens, re-enable the plugins one by one to identify the problematic plugin.
  6. Check the project settings: Ensure that the project settings are correct. Go to File > Project Settings and check the settings, such as the project type, resolution, and frame rate.
  7. Try opening a new project: Create a new project and try opening a new composition. If it opens successfully, the issue might be specific to the original project.
  8. Check for disk space: Ensure that you have enough disk space available. Low disk space can cause issues with opening compositions.
  9. Try repairing the project: You can try repairing the project by going to File > Project > Repair Project.
  10. Contact Adobe Support: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you can contact Adobe Support for further assistance.
