Adobe Printer Utility and Apple Big Sur OS

Having used the Adobe Printer Utility for some years now to profile my printers, I now find that since upgrading to OS Big Sur I cannot open this utility.  After considerable research I understand that there are several issues with Big Sur with regard to third party apps and plugins.  Has anyone else had this problem and is there a fix other than waiting for a further OS upgrade in the future?  Interested to hear from anyone with this issue.

    Apple does not maintain backward compatibility with upgrades... as you have discovered for yourself

     

    If you want to continue to use old programs you need to stay on an old operating system

     

    I do NOT know if these revert to older links will work with BS
