Premiere Pro Crashing instantly as I select a clip in the Timeline

I have this issue in premiere pro and premiere pro beta where the whole system crashes instantly when a select a clip in the timeline panel. It has happened more than 20 times now, and makes all editing impossible. I am at a wits end as to how I am supposed to edit in Premiere pro anymore, it has been incredibly unreliable over the years, using multiple different devices, and I am really consdering switching to an alternative editing software.

I will attach a screenshot for reference, I have tried so many different things to fix it, but nothing seems to work.

I need help fast, i am rapidly running out of time to get this video done.
