Linked to my reddit thread that I posted at the beginning of the season. Copy of main post's contents here.
So my game has been constantly crashing to desktop within ~1-3 mins after startup since the latest update. No error code, just freezes for a split second the black screen then closes itself. I'm not even able to load into any destinations before the game crashes. It's literally unplayable beyond the menus.
[b]Solutions I’ve tried to stop Destiny 2 from crashing:[/b]
• Update Graphics Drivers
• Verify integrity of game files
• enable in-game frame rate cap @ 60fps
• disable various application in game overlays including Steam, Discord, Xbox Game Bar
• disable Nvidia Shader Cache and delete all cached shader files
• disable HDD/SSD background monitoring service (Intel Rapid Storage for me)
• uninstalled the game, ran CCleaner multiple times to make sure nothing was leftover, restarted my PC and re-install
• Set Destiny2.exe and Destiny2Launcher.exe, and BEService_x64 (in Destiny 2 steam install folder) to "run as administrator" in compatibility settings, allowing through windows firewall, run as high priority (except BEService_x64) in task manager.
• set "BEService.exe" and "BEService_D2.exe" (located in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\BattlEye") to run as administrator and allow through windows firewall
• disconnected mouse and kb and tried playing using a "plain" mouse and kb that do not have any macro buttons. Still crashes even with NO MOUSE OR KB ATTACHED.
• Reboot into Safemode, uninstall Destiny 2, use DDU to completely uninstall graphics drivers. Reboot again and install new graphics drivers and re-install destiny. Crashing is now [i][b]even quicker[/b][/i] after Selecting a character, as it does not even finish loading into the destination selection screen.
[b]NOTHING HAS WORKED TO STOP CRASHES. THE GAME IS STILL COMPLETELY UNPLAYABLE FOR ME SINCE THE UPDATE.[/b]
If anyone has any other "fixes" I haven't tried yet that they'd like to suggest I'd be happy to try them out.

update: New dxdiag after updating some of my drivers. thanks to @Strator for the help tracking down the proper drivers for me.

Edit2: After (AGAIN uninstalling) D2, uninstalling old drivers, rebooting into safe mode, running CCleaner to make sure everything Destiny is completely gone, installing new/correct drivers, then finally reinstalling destiny after a final restart everything seems to be working. I've also bypassed my AVR for good measure. It may also be important to note that I had a friend log into my steam/destiny account and reset all my destiny settings to default before I re-installed.

If this topic is still open, I will post here a link to the reddit topic with solution that helped me. In short - delete destiny2.exe and destiny2launcher.exe from the game files and perform the integrity check. It will download new binaries. This worked for me and might help others. https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTechSupport/comments/pba2iv/found_a_solution_for_crashes_with_no_message_that/

Hi! Download latest [url=https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19347/chipset-inf-utility.html]Intel Chipset drivers[/url] for your Z370. Because your DxDiag shows that your using multiple unknown/generic system device drivers for 200-series chipset. Download newer [url=https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/Z370-AORUS-Gaming-7-rev-10/support#support-dl-driver-usb31]ASMedia USB drivers[/url]. Download your latest supported driver for your discontinued [url=https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19779/657155/intel-killer-performance-suite.html]Killer LAN Adapter[/url] (from April 2021, you are using a Nov 2018 version). The latest version doesn't support your adapter anymore. Download the latest [url=https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/18293/intel-network-adapter-driver-for-windows-10.html]Intel I219-V Ethernet driver[/url]. (Wired_driver_26.6_x64.zip) released Oct 2021, (you are using a Sept 2019 version). After downloading, please turn off your computer, unplug ethernet and all media/audio/external devices connected to your computer even add-in cards on your motherboard only kb/mouse and display is needed. Turn on your computer and update your drivers without internet, from top to bottom. I would prefer you uninstall all above said drivers in Settings->Apps first, because Windows 10 is somewhat a mess nowdays and every other Windows 10 release needs a fresh installation to rule out driver problems. Because I believe your problem is a driver related issue. If you are running the game in true 4K I would suggest you to turn down Resolution and Field of View aswell.

If you have the Administrator account active, restart your computer, log into the Administrator account, and start the game, does it work? I pretty much have the same issues you have, and this was the only way I was able to basically get into the game. Still, I see this as more of a troubleshooting step that may help rather than a full-on solution

I have the same issue, tried all the same as listed above, nothing helps. Has this been ever fixed/resolved?

A Dxdiag report?

Try deleting the cache file in the Destiny folder
