Hello.
I have always been using the multiprocessing option in after effects, for faster renders and ram previews. But recently when I have tried to render a composition, or make a ram preview it's been stuck at "initializing background processes". Disabling multiprocessing makes it able to render, but it's painfully slow when rendering large compositions since only 1 core is being used.
Here's a paste of the details in multiprocessing.
