Unable to use termbase in Studio 2024

All of a sudden my Studio cannot use the existing termbase in an existing project today. The error message when I open the project on Studio is "Could not connect to the 'xxx' termbase, so you cannot use it for term recognition." and then term recognition doesn't work; the termbase is also not enabled (not marked in the Enabled box) in the Termbases window.

My studio version is 2024 - 18.0.2.3255.

Once I tried opening Multiterm, I got three consecutive error popups that has the same text I think?

.Error dialog box with a red cross symbol indicating 'Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx failed due to the following error: 8007007e The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E).' with Knowledge Base and Community buttons below.

Multiterm can be opened though, but I cannot open any termbase.

What I have done:

1. Uninstalled and reinstalled Multiterm

2. Update my Windows 11

3. Update my AMD drivers
