Workaround
We strongly recommend to install the latest versions of Adobe Bridge and other Creative Cloud apps.
As a workaround, you can also resolve this issue by installing an earlier version of After Effects or Premiere Pro — After Effects CC (2015) 13.5 or Premiere Pro CC (2015) 9.0 — alongside the current version of your video app.

Note:
By default, when you install any Creative Cloud app it removes the previous versions of the app on your computer. If you want to keep your previous versions installed, click Advanced Options and deselect the Remove Old Versions check box in the update confirmation dialog box.
Previous product versions do not overwrite existing versions. You can have two versions of the same app running simultaneously on your computer

Restart Adobe Bridge and reset the preferences on startup. For details, see Restore preferences.
