Big Sur is out of support and there have been reports that the latest Adobe updates will not run on it. I highly recommend updating to the current Sonoma release.

It should, however, you should really consider updating to a newer macOS, since many Adobe applications like Bridge 14.1

require macOS Monterey or later and also Big Sur is no longer recieving security updates from Apple.
