Hi Mike,

 

What was true of macOS 10.15, is certainly true of macOS 11.4:

 

"Adobe recommends that customers using older versions of Photoshop Elements or Premiere Elements (versions 2019 or earlier) DO NOT upgrade to macOS 10.15 Catalina."

 

(Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements compatibility with macOS 10.15 Catalina)

 

Unless you're willing to purchase the current (2021) version of Adobe Premiere Elements, then I suggest reading this article:

Check the operating system specifications for your version... you MAY have moved past an operating system that your version will work with

I assume youve tried reinstalling.
