Yep, that fix worked before new release with new bad code in GoogleMobileAdsSettings script. This part of code written without testing for sure. They loading the file from the Resources and then creating a new instance. https://github.com/googleads/googleads-mobile-unity/blob/ebd375f124375d3133e7195a80208c15c7981f21/source/plugin/Assets/GoogleMobileAds/Editor/GoogleMobileAdsSettings.cs#L50-L72

To fix this, try adding another null check after line 59 in the above code, like this:

         instance = Resources.Load<GoogleMobileAdsSettings>(MobileAdsSettingsFile); 

         if (instance != null) 
         { 
             return instance; 
         }

This issue is resolved in the latest plugin version "Google Mobile Ads Unity Plugin v6.1.2".
