IMPORTANT! This guide only works with Animation Composer 2. The latest version 3 doesn't have this option yet, you might have to downgrade to previous version if you cannot provide internet access to your computer.
Only use the following guide if there is absolutely no other way to grant After Effects application internet access.
Before proceeding, please do:

- Check if your firewall, antivirus or a router is not blocking the After Effects application from accessing the internet.
