Program crash after last update

I recorded a video of how this happens. It is impossible to work. I did not have problems with this before, but after the last update, I cannot use the equalizer from FabFilter. And I cannot refuse it, I have been using it for many years, it is my standard. I also have Kirchoff-eq in the library, Premiere also refuses to work with it, and the program closes. That is, the problem is not in a specific equalizer.
Please help in solving this problem.

    Hi ​@Vadym B. 
    Again this is similar to Sound Q issue you reported,

    Since  Kirchoff-eq is a third-party audio plugin/application, it's certainly possible that the update changed something in Premiere's audio plugin inventory or cache.

    A few questions:

    • Which version of Kirchoff-eq was installed when the issue began?
    • Did the issue return after restarting Premiere?
    • Under Manage Audio Plugins, did you notice any plugins reported as failed, missing, or disabled before the rescan?

    Thanks again for documenting the issue.

    1) Have you contatcted the maker of Fab Filter about the problem?

    2) Have you dumped the cache files when starting Premiere? (Hold down Shift while launching, select ‘clear all cache files’ option)

    3) Have you tried rolling back to an earlier 26.x build?

    I clarified that this is not the only third-party equalizer that does not work in this version of Premiere, TBTech Kirchoff also does not work correctly, which causes the program to freeze.
    Clearing the cache did not help.
    I have not tried the previous version. When I have free time, I will try.

    And note, I didn’t say the previous full version, just rolling back a build or two in this version. So you can keep working the same projects. As you didn’t add any detailed build information I must assume “by recent update” you meant the newest patch build of 26.x
