AE crashed, now text doesn't work

#1

Hey, I was working on my reel the other day, I started rendering something but then AE stopped responding for quite some time, so I crashed the program. When I started it back up, all of my text stopped working. I tried resetting options, but I can’t find text formatting options to reset.

Heres what I have, text just stays in the upper left, just off of the canvas. I can move it with a text animator, and the text will move around then, but if I move it it wont work with normal position, look at the attachment

Any way I can reset this?

Trash the AE prefs, disable OpenGL…

go to the follwing folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Adobe\After Effects

go the the relevant folder and rename or move the file named “Adobe After Effects 9.0 Prefs”

make sure you can see hidden files and folders
