Solutions to common issues users may encounter. Includes diagnosis tips and recommended fixes to ensure a smooth experience.
1. Installing StareLock
Download and extract the StareLock.zip file from our website.
Inside, you’ll find:
StareLock.jsx
StareLock.ffx
installer.bat (for automatic setup)
Option 1: Using the Installer (Recommended)
• Run installer.bat from the extracted folder
• Enter your After Effects version (e.g., 2020) when prompted
• The installer will place files in the correct location automatically
• Restart Adobe After Effects
Go to File > Scripts > StareLock.jsx to run the script.
Scripts opened from File > Scripts are not dockable panels
Option 2: Manual Installation
• Copy StareLock.jsx and StareLock.ffx and paste here:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects 2020\Support Files\Scripts
• Restart Adobe After Effects
• Go to File > Scripts > StareLock.jsx to run the script
Use this method only if the installer does not work on your system
