After Effects Continuously Crashing When Rendering

Having an issue where I am working on a project and upon hitting 'Render' in the Render Queue, my entire After Effects almost freezes in place and no buttons work forcing me to restart the app. I have sent a crash report, and everytime I re-open After Effects, a "Crash Repair Options" menu shows up before I can continue on. Ive tried all the options on the Crash Repair Options menu and it has not worked. Also tried purging cache, clearing all disk cache, uninstalling and reinstalling, and even downloading an older version After Effects which have all not worked. Ive also tried to render the video with different settings, which all have not worked. Its gotten to the point where, the project file almost seems frozen the moment I reopen it, as I cannot even Preview or playback my video anymore. I had no issues opening up other projects and rendering them, it seems to simply be this one project file. I've exhausted all my other problem-solving options which has led me to here. As seen in the photo in the Render Queue, the "Current Render" bar stays unfilled and shows no signs of processing or progress and is like that for continuous minutes on end.
