Within the %userprofile%/.texlive2020 there are two sub-folders:
	texmf-config
	texmf-var

The texmf-var folder should NEVER contain files you care for!!
The texmf-config folder can be used to put private files, but as Siep
said, TEXMFHOME = %userprofile%/texmf is preferable, in particular since
TL2021 will pick up TEXMFHOME automatically, but not
	%userprofile%/.texlive2020/texmf-config

It would help if you send the list of files below %userprofile%/.texlive2020
or the **complete** log file when the error occurred, because one could
see which file was wrongly loaded.

Last but not least: my guess is that you have an old format dump under
%userprofile%/.texlive2020 and that gets used.
