Premiere pro fails to load motion graphics templates even when after effects is installed
I am editing a video in Premiere Pro CC 2021 on mac OS Mojave. I'm trying to use a motion graphics template that requires After Effects. I also have After Effects CC 2021 installed but when I drop the graphic into the timeline it loads for a very long time then returns an error telling me that I need to install After Effects.

Just a week ago I used the same graphic without any issue. So I think it is odd that it is not working now. To try and fix the issue I have restarted my computer and updated After Effects, uninstalled and reinstalled After Effects. I am currently waiting for Premiere Pro to update but I don't know if that will work. If this fails I am gonna try to update my OS. I would really appreciate any advice on the issue and to hear about solutions other people have used.
