Don't open up in Elements 21; DNG converter doesn't find the files; what is anyone processing their medium format Fuji GFX files with?

Elements 2021 should be able to open the file. If not perhaps trying to update the camera raw.

Thanks - it is updated ( may I assume the RAW is same in all the Fuji GFX cameras? )

HOPEFULLY if any are different they changed the suffix like Canon did (.CR2 -> .CR3)

Normally the camera manufacturer provides software that can open its raw files.
I found it, previously, online, but, to no avail

Most Fuji cameras use an X-Trans filter on the sensor but the GFX100s and all of the GFX100 series use a Bayer array - which would need different software to render the raw files.

No, every different sensor from any manufacturer's cameras produce different raw files though they get the same prefix - all Nikon digital cameras' raw files are appended with NEF, from the D200 to the D5 or the D850, etc. This is essentially because the raw file from a given camera is the data stream recorded by the chip (which is also why it is not a "digital image" until it is demosaiced) = though i don't mean to start another silly war of words on that topic here)...if the imaging chip is different the raw data stream will be different, simple as that.
That said, you don't indicate what computer you use - in the Mac world the OS has the demosaic software built into it and so it's possible you need to update your OSX. For instance, when the X-T4 first came out my Mac could not natively read the files, even though they have the same suffix as the X-T3, X-T2 etc. But after one of the software updates from Apple, the X-T4 files were readable. The point is, you might need to update the OS if you use a Mac.

I suggest that you download a trial version of Capture One for Fuji. Capture One was originally built for Fuji and now comes in several flavors.

You can find the adobe information on what cameras are supported by what version of the adobe products at the following web site. You may need to update your version of Elements or swithch to Lightroom. I use the current version of Lightroom classic with GFX100 RAF files and haven't had any problems.
