Premiere Pro Always Crashing at Launch on Windows

Let me start off by saying that out of all the Creative Cloud apps I have installed... I probably use Premiere the least. A while back I updated to a later release of version 14-ish and Premiere would always crash shortly after launch. I have no plugins, and clearing preferences or media cache never helped. My solution at the time was just to roll back to a previous release that didn't have the problem.
Every once and a while I would try the latest release, hoping my problem would be resolved... but I would end up having to roll back to the older version 14-ish release that worked. (I'm unsure of the exact release at this point.) Now it seems I'm unable to install these older releases and I'm stuck with a non-functional Premiere.
I've gone through all of the reccomended troubleshooting and nothing seems to resolve the issue. (e.g., clearing preferences and media cache, uninstall and using the cleaner tool before reinstall, updating runtime libraries, updating drivers, reverting drivers, etc.) My only remaining option seems to be a complete system rebuild and that's just not worth it.
I've attached my crash report if that makes any difference whatsoever. Wondering if anyone can reccomend next steps for resolving this.
