I used to play Victoria 3 a lot, and at most it would just start running slow as the game progressed. But, I've come back to the game after not playing in a while, and it crashes at least once every hour. It never used to crash. I'm using the same laptop, there's no issue with the laptop. I play other games like CK3 all the time

I've moved you into your own thread - please do not re-open old threads! The game has changed a lot since that other thread was made.
Right click on victoria3.exe , properties, compatibility. Tick "disable fullScreen optimisations" untick every other box in that dialog, Apply and exit.
Then in the launcher Game Settings menu, select fullScreen display mode, Vsync off, cap refresh rate at 60.
If those don't help:
DXDIAG is a program you run from the Windows search box on the task bar. After running it will open a window and start collecting info with a progress bar in the lower-left corner. When it completes click the 'save all information' button and save it to a file then attach that file here. IF dxdiag.txt fails to attach here, rename it to dxdiag.log , or zip it up.
