In QGIS Georeferencer: Mystyrious OGR Driver Error: not found OGR

I have been georeferencing Vector files (gpkg and shp) in the new Georeferencer in QGIS 3.30.1. The files are pretty large, have multiple million features and a size of roughly 2-3gb.

I have successfully georeferenced 2 of those files with no issues in the georeferencer, but when attempting to georef 2 additional files (which have been created through the exact same process and model) I got this error:

OGR Driver error: not found (OGR:

I have tried a lot of things, including:

Trying different georef algorithms, repairing the geometries, trying to georef them as shapefiles, running QGIS on a different machine, completely reinstalling and installing the newest version of QGIS

but to no avail.

I still cannot georeference them. This is especially puzzling since with the other two files (created equally and of actually bigger size) i had 0 problems.

If you have any insight on where this error comes from, if it is related to the files themselves or rather the nature of QGIS and OGR i would be enormously thankful!
