Premiere Pro will not open at all: No splash screen, nothing. Other adobe apps work perfectly fine.

Whenever I open Premiere Pro (i've tried both 2024 and 2025 versions) and whether I open the app from the search bar, from my files, or from the creative cloud app: nothing happens.
The cursor switches to the wait cursor and then nothing will happen, not even a splash screen.

Other apps like photoshop or illustrator work completely fine.

I have tried troubleshooting this issue with other forums but to no avail:
- opening with 'alt' or 'ctrl shift alt' dont do anything

- deactivating/allowung past firewall didnt work

- using the beta version also does not work

- ive tried installing it to my secondary drive instead -  did not work

please dear goodness i need help
