What am I supposted to do?

  We are not able to offer Tech Support here, but reading that crash report I can direct you to an area to investigate as that's a GPU issue.

  I was getting the same crash over and over since the 9.0 update. I reset , reinstalled, did everything suggested. Ironically, after installing the recent PTB I was able to play without crashing.

  Run DDU its open source tool for hard full uninstall of gpu drivers and anything related to it.

  Then install gpu driver again
