Repeated, unexplained game crashes
Ever since I've started playing I keep getting crashes while doing the most innocuous things such as browsing a vendor's products, or working with a retainer, let alone having the game app totally, suddenly disappearing to my desktop while in a duty party.
I have tried tweaking several graphics settings below the "optimal" values that my graphics GPU recommends for the game, to no avail. Nothing seems to change.
Here is a screen capture of one of these latest crashes error message:

Please advise what steps I may take to troubleshoot and ultimately fix this problem?
Thank you very much for all advice.
I'm having the same issue.
It's only been happening since the most recent patch.
I hope my system info is useful in helping solve this. I recently checked all my drivers (many of them update automatically). The only other things really running are Discord and my antivirus.
