Do you know why Premiere won't start and stuck in this stage? I turned off Firewall, empty Adobe folder and reinstalled Adobe CC. It still does not work. Please help!

I've been through this at length with Apple Support, who have been superb, and got this resolved. It isn't an Adobe issue, but an underlying OS issue. 

 

On a Mac, the issue appears to be mainly due to missing Desktop and Documents folders within your user profile (Macintosh HD > Users > YOURNAME. Creating a new profile allowed it to work ok, although that is just a workaround / test, not a solution. I had recently uninstalled DropBox, but I believe iCloud Drive has a similar impact. Due to underlying OS permissions you cannot simply recreate these folders. 

 

Ultimately I had to delete the existing Documents and Desktop links (since they weren't linking anywhere) and reinstall the MacOS. This only took about 30 minutes and doesn't affect your existing files, it just fixes any underlying system files and folders. It recreated the Documents and Desktop folders and all started fine and is now running perfectly.

I just deleted the old QuickTime 7 Pro, and it started working again.  They stopped supporting the program.

revert to the previous version that was working until we can solve the problem.


As told: "Note: Premiere 2019 starts normally."

 

Premiere 2019 is known as Premiere 13. Quite long ago... Pre-Catalina I think. And Catalina isn't even the latest OS.

 

Which brings me to this:

Did anyone solve te Premiere Pro problem by upgrading to Big Sur?

I don't understand why force quitting while launching premiere will make you lose your project.   Maybe go in to a little more detail.  You might also tell us your system specs: OS version, Premiere version, amount of RAM, Hardware specs including graphics card.
