After Effects freezes every time I select multiple keyframes

Hey!
It has started recently after no specific installations or changes in workflow. AE glitches out during actions as simple as selecting multiple keyframes or even one keyframe when multiple parameters are opened and freezes forever so the only way to continue is to hardkill it in the task manager.
Video demo is attached (skip to 25s for the problem itself, I've recorded the whole scenario starting from startup that happens with 100% probability)
Log file for exactly the same scenario as in the video is attached.
In any project, be it a heavy scene with 3d tracking and cinema 4d shadowing or a blank project with only one shape layer. It’s not project related, the same one from the video works fine on another machine.
In any AE version: 2021, 2020, 2019.
On any of two SSDs - I’ve tried collecting the project and moving it to the main ssd with OS
In modified workspace with lots of scripts and extensions and in Standard workspace with nothing launched
In CC 2021 that was working just fine with all of the plugins installed and in clean CC 2019 launched with Ctrl + Alt + Shift with nothing external whatsoever.
I've deleted Nvidia GPU Drivers alltogether and made a clean install twice.
I've updated BIOS and swapped M2 NVMEs back and forth.
I've searched through the whole internet and stumbled upon two recommendations:
Delete Red Giant Supercomp plug-in - I've deleted all Red Giant Plugins alltogether and the problem persisted
Redgiant support once adviced someone to plug out the second monitor (what a wonderful solution) - It helped for a single test, but the next working day it started happening again. As monitors were involved, I've started testing out different connection types: switching cables from DisplayPort to HDMI to another HDMI. Connecting them to GPU ports and MB ports.
NOTHING. NOTHING HELPS.
I'd appreciate any brainstorming at all because I'm simply out of ideas and I have work that needs to be finished on this machine.
