Unable To Open .NEF Files

I updated to v26 last week, haven't used the program since. Sat down to edit pics yesterday, and when I try to open my RAW file (.NEF), Photoshop freezes. 
- Camera RAW is up to date.
- Jpeg files open with no problem.

- The graphics processor is up to date.

- I have had no problem with the files over the last 1 year+ (Nikon Z9)
- computer has been restarted a number of times since yesterday
What I have tried:
- opening in the program, dragging and dropping, opening by right-clicking the photo in a folder
- rolling back to version 25.12 (files opened fine in the past on this version...don't now)
- Googling for others having issues, most recent is May 2024 but suggestions aren't for my version
- changing the file name ie: _CS12345.NEF to CS12345.NEF
I'm super frustrated as I need to work on photos for an event next week.
Thanks for any help!

From which type of camera the .nef files are?

Do you get an error message? If yes, then post the message word-by-word.

 

My System: Intel i7-8700K - 64GB RAM - NVidia Geforce RTX 3060 - Windows 11 Pro 23H2 -- LR-Classic 14 - Photoshop 26 - Nik Collection 7 - PureRAW 4 - Topaz PhotoAI 3

Thank you, that solution worked, however, I'd expect Adobe to announce that caliber of bug
