I don't do editor scripts, so am not familiar with PreviewEditorWindow, but the first thing that comes to mind is, are you missing a using statement for UnityEditor?

No because it's in a default unity script

Ok and I guess it's a secret what that script actually is? Unity doesn't have any "default scripts". You might have imported some sort of package. Are you sure that you do not use legacy / outdated scripts in a newer Untiy version? For a start how about telling us what's the name of the script and where is it located in your project?

They're in Library\PackageCache\com.ubity.timeline@1.2.6\editor and then its based of different files after that but that's the backage, they are called \state\WindowState \Window\TimelineWindow \treeview\Timeline\TreeViewGUI

It is an issue with the Timeline package.

I solved it by going to Window => Package Manager => Unity Timeline => open the tab => below, you should find the last verified version (for me 1.1.0), click on it, then, at the button, click on the button "Update to 1.1.0".

Enjoy! :)
