Hello everyone! Everytime I try to add a hyperlink to my InDesign document, the program crashes. This happened a few months ago on the last project I was working on too and was hoping it would be fixed by now. Anyone have any tips for me or is it just a program bug?

Can you describe the exact steps you're taking, and where ID decides it doesn't like them?
ETA: And, is this only one document, or does it happen in others (especially a fresh, otherwise empty doc)?
(Your platform, OS version and ID version would help, too.)

Is it just the one document or every document?
For just one document try this
If a document is not behaving well then try
File>Export
Choose IDML
Open the IDML in InDesign
Save the file as a new InDesign file with a new name
See if the issue persists.
If it's all documents - or the above doesn't work
Try resetting your preferences:
Windows: Start InDesign, and then press Shift+Ctrl+Alt. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files.
macOS: While pressing Shift+Option+Command+Control, start InDesign. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files.
A dialog will appear asking to delete the InDesign Preferences, select 'Yes' on this dialog.
