Very strange. It almost sounds like you are missing files from the archive. Do you have a GIFsquid folder inside your Script UI folder?

I do, and running AE as administrator ended up with the same result.

Ok. Please try this for me. Open a new File Explorer window and go to c:\ProgramData (if the folder is hidden, just type it into the address bar)

Inside you should see two files: GIFsquid.log and squidyavi.bat. Open both of those in notepad and paste the contents here or to pastebin.

Ah, so I'm not seeing those files there. Only a blank "GifSquid" text document. 

It really sounds like you're missing some files and/or AE isn't set to allow scripts to write files/access network.   Please try re-extracting the JSXBIN file and the GIFsquid folder into your AE/ScriptUI folder and double-check the preference to allow scripts to write files.  In your case, the script is choking at the point it should be able to write to C:\programdata

Did you ever get this working?

Hello, I'm having the same problem. I did everything you suggested,  but I keep getting the "AE has crashed" notification and it just renders the comp as an .avi file and then nothing else happens.

Hi Mikel, Just to double-check, you are on Windows and you've done all of the installation steps, including setting AE to "allow scripts to write files and access the network"?

Yes, I copied the files to Script Ui Panels and scripts were already activated and I even reset my preferences and turned them back on, just to double check. 

Ok, next let's look at squidyavi.bat inside of c:\programdata

Open it in notepad and paste the contents here.

There is no such file in that folder...

Hello, I am having the same issue. I managed to make a short capture of my "Squirt GIF" execution. 

Can you explain a bit more about what the bug is and what you've tried to fix it?
