I haven’t had any problems so far with CC. Now that I’m using CC, I find it hard to go back to to CS6.

If one specific plugin isn’t causing the problem, then it’s likely that After Effects is crashing because too many effects are applied to one clip. Removing effects from the clip that is causing After Effects to crash, rendering on a faster computer, or exporting a sequence of TIFF images are possible solutions.

Apply the Particle World effect to a solid (Layer –> New –> Solid). Do not apply this effect to the clip itself. Add the solid with the Particle World effect to the layer above your clip.
If you already applied the Particle World effect to your clip, then cut and paste the effect from your clip to the new solid.

This happened to me before when I had a giant-sized After Effects project file. If the project file is small, it will open and save quickly. If the project file is large, it will open and save slowly. If it’s over 50 – 150 MB, depending on it stats of your computer, it may take forever to open and save. Even though it says that it’s 100% complete, it still may not be anywhere close to 100%. It could easily take over 10 minutes to open a project this large.
If you’re able to get the project to open, then try reducing the file size. You can do this by using compositions for repetitive footage, deleting unused files in the project panel, deleting unused footage in the timeline, removing unused effects, and deleting unused keyframes. You can always render and export footage with effects applied to them, import the rendered footage, and delete the footage with the effects.
