Error trying to setup old workspace in 2021.2

So I've installed the new MCreator version and started setting up all my Workspaces, most of which were created in 2021.1.

However, one of them always fails. I've checked my Internet connection, disabled my VPN and deleted my MCreator cache, but nothing changes. 

All other Workspaces I've tried worked seamlessly, but this one doesn't.

The error is as follows:

UPDATE: We have released a patch update to a bug found in 2021.2 release:

  • [Bugfix, FG 1.16.5] Enabling MCreator Link caused Gradle errors

To install the patch, re-download 2021.2 and install it again. Make sure to uninstall the current version first. We will not be rolling update notifications yet as this patch only applies to users using MCreator Link.
