InDesign book (version 16.4.3)  crashes when export to EPUB (Reflowable) option.

The file contains xml content with many inline images and 162 xml tables.
Tried various options below to fix crash but it is not working still InDesign file gets crashed.
Some of the options below tried but not able to fix:
1. Deleted hyperlinks.
2. Used split document option in EPB export.

3. Deleted end notes in the InDesign file.

Try exporting 50% of the pages - that is if it's 100 pages - then try pages 1-50 first. Then try 50-100.

Whichever side it crashes on try the export again for 50% of those pages.

Using this method you can narrow down the troublesome page(s) and correct it. 

It could be a wonky image file, it could be a text frame, it could be a graphic of another type, it could be a dodgy style.
