Welcome to the forums…
Cannot tell everything from your player.log but you are having various errors that could point to two things, a corrupted install or some issues with the graphics that could be causing the instability.
As you havent provided your le_graphicsmanager.ini (exact settings/resolution you play the game at) or the output of a dxdiag report (general system info, OS, drivers and diagnostic data), I am going to offer some general recommendations that may help.
As you are using a Laptop, make 100% sure that you are not using any dynamic graphics mode - when playing LE you MUST ensure that the laptop is ONLY using the 1660 ti and not attempting to use the vega gpu at any time. You can do this at the driver level or in the advanced Windows graphics settings. The laptop should be set to performance mode and should probably be plugged in not on battery.
Make sure that your GPU drivers are up to date - i.e. something from the last few months and make sure that you do a proper clean installation - not an upgrade. You can use something like DDU if you dont know how to do that.
Make sure your OS is patched and there are no failed updates related to your system
Make 100% sure that your laptop bios and all associated drivers and required apps are up to date.
As you are using Steam… Run a Game File Verification to make sure that your installation is still ok. This is something you should do whenever you experience any issue with LE.
Make 100% sure not to run any other applications while testing LE. Besides taking resources that the game could use, there are many apps that can potentially conflict with the Unity game engine and cause instability… Simply dont run anything - this includes things like graphcial overlays etc…
The 1660 Ti Max Q is about as fast as a desktop 1060 3gb GPU - with this in mind, its important to understand that LE is in beta and is generally unoptimised… I.e. you need to be conservative with in-game settings in favour of a more stable experience. Its very important that you monitor your GPU usage and limit LE from maxing out your GPU - something it will try to do whenever it can and when this happens for any length of time, the game will become unstable. On your GPU, I would not recommend more than 1080p, 60fps framerate limited (do not leave it unlimited and do not use vsync) and most settings on very low with special features like shadows and AA on the lowest option.
Thats all I can recommend based on the info you have provided…
I do run the game with those settings outside of very low. Have set it to low. I looked into if a windows update occurred and one did. I went and uninstalled the update, still had crash. Updated the game in steam, still crashed. Reinstalled after fresh download/ uninstall, crashed. I finally just recovered my system to a day ago and that seems to have fixed the issue. I seem to always run into problems with windows updates 
thanks for the reply btw
Glad a restore worked…
Updates can cause issues… there was that update in April 2021 that messed things up for a lot of games including LE… Even driver updates have the same issue… one version might work, and the next not…
Would be good if you could try and figure out exactly what changed between restore points - perhaps even posting the windows update ### that you think may have been involved - that might be something more concrete to go on… at the very least, give someone else something to try if they have a similar problem on similar setup.
The other thing to note is that you are using a laptop and i have found that this adds another level of complexity to problems like this because laptops tend to have their own “secret sauce” provided by the manufacturers that tends to lag behind when compared to desktop components… What may seem like a fairly innocent Windows update on a desktop system might actually have issues with the far more complicated tricks that laptop drivers/apps all have to save battery/have dynamic performance and generally do things the in the way the laptop needs… and thats not even considering the physical issues like thermals / bios settings etc… In my experience, laptops are most definitely not the same beasts as desktops and behave very differently sometimes…
