I am playing vanila.
I think i am.
I am not even sure how to tell or how to install mods, so i guess i dont have mods on it.

Life happens. It happened to you. You can fix it, but pretending you're not modded while the evidence shows that you're using BepInEx isn't helpful.

It doesn't matter what you think about your install; the fact that BepInEx is spitting messages to the console means you're running mods. BepInEx is not part of the default install, and would not be loaded if your Valheim install wasn't modded.

If you don't want to revert to the previous version (instructions in my previous comment), I recommend uninstalling Valheim, removing the Valheim folder from SteamLibrary/common, then reinstalling. That should get rid of any residual mod files, and allow you to run "clean". I don't know what mods you're running, so I have no idea what functionality you will lose (if any), but your mods are the most likely problem; they're not up-to-date with the current version of Valheim.

I'm running default_old, myself, although I play strictly vanilla; after the update, my game started crashing every time it tried to save the world, so I reverted so I can play while I wait for the Valheim devs to fix whatever shortcuts they used to "enhance performance".

i must have put that mod there long time ago and forgot all about it.
I deleted the folder BepInEx and it seems to work

BepInEx is a mod loader. You're not playing vanilla Valheim.

That being said, you can probably get everything working again by reverting to the previous version of the game while you wait for the mods to update. Right-click "Valheim" in the games list in Steam, and choose "Properties". In the window that appears, select "Betas" in the list on the left, then choose "default_old" from the dropdown at the top-right.

BepInEx is a mod, so, youll need to ask the mod community. as Valheim doesnt officially support mods.
