Update: With Windows Defender disabled, I get the crash error, but at least the file gets added to the render queue - then I get spinning beachball of death and no rendering. Still no log file or anything. =(

I did previously copy all files from the zip files into the directory just to make sure.

Hi, I'm having exactly the same issues as the above posters. I triple checked, and the allow scripts to write files setting is on. I also am not getting any log files in ProgramData.

I have tried AE2019, AE2018 and AE2017. Each of them immediately gives me the "It may appear that After Effects has crashed" error. In AE2018 & AE2019, it actually crashes afterwards. In 2017, AE stays open on the render queue but no output path is set and nothing is happening. 

Wondering if there's been some sort of Windows update that messes all this up?
