I have been getting this exception all day today and its very frustrating. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling, updating my GPU, updating my windows to the latest version, reinstalling the c++ redistributal, turning off steam cloud synch and nothing is working. The game loads fine and I can play for a few minutes and this it just crashes without anything seeming to be the cause. I did not notice this happening before when playing Vic 3.

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.
Please attach here your Documents/Paradox Interactive/Victoria3/pdx_settings.json .
From your Documents/Paradox Interactive/Victoria3/logs/ folder, attach here system.log , error.log , exceptions.log

I did the fullscreen optimisation and it didn't work. I dont see an exceptions.log in that folder location but in the crashes I saw it and its the same one as my original attachment just a different memory location
