This issue has been fixed in the August 2022 release of After Effects, version 22.6. In that version, you will need to grant aerender permission the first time you use the "-reuse" flag, but once that permission is granted it will continue to work.

The full list of issues fixed in After Effects 22.6 is available here: https://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/kb/fixed-issues.html

Thanks again for reporting this issue,

    Hello,
    I have the same issue,
    Mac with Monterey OS and Apple M1 chip.

    When running aerender -project project.aepx -comp "main" -output preview.avi -reuse

    I receive "aerender SYNTAX ERROR: Illegal argument flag: -reuse" error

    Is there any ETA on fixing this?

    Hi Ronan,

    Thank you for making this report. Would you be able to provide more information so that we can better understand the issue? The "-reuse" flag has not been removed from aerender.

    - What OS version are you using?
    - What arguments are being passed to aerender?

    Thanks very much for any further information you can provide,
    - John, After Effects Engineering Team
