Windows 10: BEX64 and bcryptprimitives.dll crashes

I've been experiencing intermittent crashes on various programs for a while, sometimes even BSOD events. In the reliability viewer I'm seeing BEX64 as the problem event name and bcryptprimitives.dll as the faulting module. I've included a link to the minidumps I've been collecting over time. I have tried a fresh install of windows and while the BSOD events have been less frequent, they still happen. I've tried various GPU drivers and even rolled back to the one the computer came installed with. I feel like I'm starting to reach the end of my researching capabilities so I'm hoping someone else

:)

 

intermittent BEX64 explorer.exe crash

For reference- apologies you probably already know this:
What are BEX errors in Windows? - Quora

It's almost inevitably associated with a 3rd party program hooked into file explorer.
Consider anything that modifies file explorer in any way (e.g. adds buttons, quick access to favourites, changes appearance of the GUI...) and any context menu entry.

You can start by disabling all non-MS context entries, starting with Shellexview (free), and then seeing if the same occurs.

You may find further such entries using the more technical Autoruns (free from MS) where the listing is divided into clear sections to help you find those.

Do not disable MS entries- these programs help you to hide those.

DLL Missing

The problem is, that the required DLL is not actually even listed there.
There are just dozens of download adware links from the top to the bottom.
