  • Error when launching: "Unable to run script on line 1. Expected"

    Hola, amigos (as),

    I get the following message every time I start the After Effects program, “Unable to run script on line 1. Expected:)”. Any way to fix it? The version of the program is: Adobe After Effects 2020 17.0.6.35 and I attach the error message:

    Saludos, muchas gracias

    Yerko

    Hmm. You might check to see if there’s an issue with something in your scripts startup folder.

    Here on mac: /Applications/Adobe After Effects (version)/Scripts/Startup

    Here on Windows: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects (version)\Support Files\Scripts\Startup

    It says the problem is on line 1, so if you have any scripting knowledge you may be able to check. Or if it’s a non-essential script, try removing the file.
