'Trying to import android project to android studio - This version ... cannot open this project

I am trying to open an already existing android project.

At first inside the main folder there are two subfolders one _MACOSX and another one that contains the android project.

I guess, without being sure, that the _MACOSX folder has files that auto created because probably the project was developed on MAC.

I am just trying to import the project from the second folder and I am getting the following error

This version of the Android Support plugin for IntelliJ IDEA (or Android Studio) cannot open this project, please retry with version 2021.1.1 or newer.

Does anyone know how to fix this issue? I would appreciate any help

Thank you
