    I've been trying to get this tank shape to rotate continuously using Animation. Every time I go into the Record Mode I get "NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object"
    HOW CAN I SOLVE THIS?

    If you refresh the Editor layout, it will get rid of this issue (Window - Layouts).
    If you can give us exact repro steps for this issue, it'd be greatly appreciated.

    Regards

    Create a 3D Cube object.
    While selecting it Window -> Animation -> 'Created an animation folder and saved the animation files in it'
    Then, every time I hit the Record Button, this error pops up.

    What are you recording? The animation? A video of the animated scene?
    I couldn't reproduce the issue with the steps you mentioned. The Window - Animation menu doesn't have the option you mention.
    I'm assuming you're in 2019.4. Please confirm that and give us more details (including a list of packages you are using - see manifest.json) so we can help.

    Please send screenshots of your Recorder Window OR Recorder Clip inspector (on timelines) so we can see how you configured your Recorders.
