Hmm. Error message does not lie, there is no OptiFine jar to be found in your mods folder...
Download it from the OptiFine home page.
That looks weird: OptiFine jar is usually named 'OptiFine_X.X.X_HD_U_GX.jar', it does not begin with version number. Did you download it from the official web site?
yeah, do you know where you got that version of optifine from? You should never download optifine anywhere but https://optifine.net or (backup site: old) https://optifined.net
The OptiFine jar you see in the screenshot is the jar from the .minecraft/versions folder (that jar is created when you install Optifine by executing the downloaded OptiFine jar file).
It is not the same (anymore) as the OptiFine jar you download from the website.
To use OptiFine with (Opti)Fabric, you'll need the downloaded jar file.
