Premiere Pro slow to load and crashes Mac-Intel/AMD | MacOS ventura 13.2.1

I have a Macbook pro-2019

2.4 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9

Graphics: AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 8 GB / Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB

RAM: 64 GB 2667 MHz DDR4

And adobe premiere and rush take 3-5 minutes to load! If it does, it slows and freezes before I can open or create a new project. I tried Rush, and it won't even open; it just crashes at the first inro screen where it asks you to select media. 

My hard drive isn't filled up, and I don't have other programs running except for system monitors. I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the apps using adobe cloud.

Is anyone else experiencing super slow loading times with adobe premiere or rush??

Thanks.
