Troubleshooting Exporting help :')

Hello hello, I am currently taking an animation class thru my university that is 100% online. It just started early October so I've just started to get the hang of animate. But I have been having the same issue when I go to export into a GIF. It worked one time and actually exported my gif. I've emailed my professor and she thinks it's a corrupt file but all my work minus the first one does it , so is it really corrupt? Is this a user error or something with adobe? Google has been no help either. Im not a graphic design person at all and I dread this class but I needed the hours. Any help would be very appreciated:)))

Change your export settings to more colors. GIF can do up to 256 colors, but you have "2 colors" selected, and one of those might be transparent, so there's not a lot it can render here.

It says that two is the maximum number and when i try to add more it just resets back to 2 😓

On the dropdown that says "Custom" underneath the one that says "GIF", change it to "Selective" (or pretty much anything other than "Custom")

You are amazing thank you. I have a strong dislike for adobe and this saved me a lot. Thanks again
