    Right-click the Pro Shaders installer and select "Run as Administrator."

    Ensure both your Element 3D assets folder and the After Effects Plug-ins folder (usually C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects [Version]\Support Files\Plug-ins) have full admin read/write permissions. 2. Re-link with the Full Element 3D Installer
