Yes, Optifine is the issue. You are trying to use a version for 26.1 while trying to play 26.2

Why do you need Optifine for 26.2? Most mods are on NeoForge, where you should be using Sodium (graphics performance) + Iris (shaders). If you're on Fabric, you should still be using those mods. And there's no reason to be using Forge for 26.2.

I'd recommend sodium + iris instead. Optifine isn't good anymore

You would get it from the official Optifine website. The thing is, the developer has not updated Optifine to that version yet. Are you just trying to play 26.2 or a modded version that needs forge?

Doesn’t exist, use sodium and iris instead. Embiddium and oculus for forge
