Why doesn't Solidworks recognize recognize my swbrowser.sldedb file?

Hi all, My company is migrating from SW2020 to SW2024. And I have run into a strange issue.

 

When i start up solid works, I receive the following error message:

Stating that SW can't find the swbrowser file. But when I go to the folder the error message highlights:
I find the file in question. I was wondering if there might be some version mismatch and the swbrowser.sldb file was only valid for SW2020 or something like that. Any help understanding what is going on would be appreciated.
