Error message when I start adobe illustrator and when I open a file (illustrator-20.0.jsx error)

The version of illustrator that I have is v 26.0.3.

When I start adobe illustrator and when I open a file an error message appears. If I press ok I can continue to work, but I am concerned about the error. I tried reinstalling everything adobe related and deleting everything from my disk. I also tried downloading a previous version (v 26.0.2).

Error message:

Error in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Startup Scripts CC\Illustrator 2022\illustrator-20.0.jsx

Line 1:

I/O error

I just deleted the file like an other user recommended. The error stopped and until now I haven't had other problems. I don't like deleting random files, but it worked. I see inside the file a comment that says the file is  it is named with the current version of illustrator but the actual name of the file is 20.0. Something is wrong.

This, or something similar, has been mentioned before - search the forum...

Hey! Thank you for replying. Can you help me find one? Because I search and I don't find anything recent.

I quit Illy, moved mine out of the startup folder, restarted - didn't seem to affect anything...
