You will need ASIO4ALL or an audio interface that is ASIO compatible in order to use Pro Tools | First. If you already have those things, and you have tried other workarounds like holding down the 'N' key during launch, then this is the fix you are looking for!
For whatever reason, Pro Tools is very picky about it's drivers, and sometimes it can't find the ASIO driver when other Windows drivers are available. So try this:
Right-click the SPEAKER Icon in the tray.
Choose PLAYBACK DEVICES
In the PLAYBACK Tab, Right-click and Disable EVERYTHING! (one entry at a time)
In the RECORDING Tab, Right-click and Disable EVERYTHING! (one entry at a time)
Ensure you have an ASIO compatible Audio Interface with the ASIO drivers installed, and/or have ASIO4ALL installed.
Now launch Pro Tools | First and you will be able to choose your Playback Engine. Create a session, and make sure everything works.
After successfully opening Pro Tools | First, you can now close it, and then re-enable any Playback and Recording devices that you previously disabled. Use the same steps listed above, but this time choose ENABLE.

It worked! Thanks! Just got a Focusrite Scarlett. I never imagine installing it and what it comes with would be so aggravating. There are a million accounts you need to register to download the freebees and when you start Protools you are hit with this AAE error crap. Finally managed to start Protools and guess what? It crashed when loading one of the templates. Not sure if I should laugh or cry.

Thank you very much! This fix still works for ProTools 12 as well! I couldn't get protools to see the Presonus Studio Live 16 or the scarlett 2i4 here at church, but after following his steps and disabling all devices in the sounds playback menu like he said, Protools launched all the way to the session, then gave me the device properties have been changed. So I quit out of ProTools After re-enabling the Presonus Studiolive in the playback menu, as well as one the computer monitor's sound playback, the ProTools session launched and everything is back working great! Thank You very much again! I'm very glad that I didn't have to re-install Protools!! Saved me such much time!

Man that worked. 2h of head banging is over. Edit: Never use scarlet 2i2 studio as playback device and then try to run it as playback engine. Got a dozens of blue screens. Just use your speaker's driver for playback on Windows and then use scarlet studio asio USB driver as playback driver. Got that right in the hard way.

Excellent tutorial. So, as I understood it, every time you start Pro Tools you have to disable all audio devices? Because in my case, the only way it works is that way, otherwise Pro Tools freezes.
