For some reason, the video I want to export as a MP4 became a M4V and AAC file. I do not know why this is randomly happening now, any help would be appreshiated.

These are the two "streams" of your file before they get "muxed" together. MP4 is a container which holds the video (M4V) and audio (AAC) and treats them as a single file. If you're not seeing the MP4 then that means your encoding isn't finished or it's failing. What happens in Premiere after the encoding hits 100% and the dialog box goes away? If you send you sequence to Adobe Media Encoder do you see the same thing?

As soon as it is finished exporting Adobe Premiere Pro closes (this is also a new thing thats happening to me) and those 2 files stay on my desktop. The problum seems to be it doesnt merge them because Premiere closes itsself for some reason.

It sounds like Premiere is crashing then at the end of your export. What exact version of Premiere are you using (not just the year, but the version from Help > About Adobe Premiere?

 

Are there any updates? 

 

Have you tried uninstalling and removing your preferences before reinstalling and exporting again?
