Premiere Pro not reading audio after update (W10)

[TLWestgate68]

After the latest update my Premiere Pro will not read, display, nor playback audio from MP4 files. I receive the following error code -1609891836.

BRAW and MOV files are fine. After Effects also does not read/play audio from MP4s. But Audition will read the audio tracks. This is on my Windows 10 machine.

The same MP4 files, however, play and edit fine on my Macbook. What gives?

I have this same issue on my PC, I tried solving it a month (June 3rd) ago and posted on here for help with no luck. Surprisingly, the project I was trying to create works on my older, less powerful laptop with less RAM and no graphics card. it seems to be a new update as when I made my ticket, I dont believe there were any, but now I've seen a few. 

I think one person figured their issue out and posted it. maybe it'll help you.
