Zotero 7.0.21: "The patch directory path is not valid for this application (3)"

Hey everybody,

since a few days my zotero is not starting anymore. The error message is

"The patch directory path is not valid for this application (3)"

I was googleing a bit but could not find any hints on how to solve this, or where the "patch directory" is. Does anyone have an idea?

I'm using
