So I'm punching my desk right now since this issue makes my sessions crash every goddamn time. i submitted this in the ableton live bug report but they say its a known issue without giving me a solution to prevent this. so I turn to the amazing Ableton community to ask for a miracle.
Everytime my session crashes I see this error before the crash:
could not categorize thread named 'AudioCalc' as 'Pro Audio'. (error 565 (0x00000235): Indicates a process has too many threads to perform the requested action. For example, assignment of a primary token may only be performed when a process has zero or one threads. )
(have a ryzen 5900x CPU)
audio threads not running at the correct priority level

Re: audio threads not running at the correct priority level
I have a ryzen 7950x and had a similar warning in my crash log:
If your issue is more so related to priority level, it looks like you can change it to a higher priority in Task Manager > Details > Right Click on Program of choice > Set Priority.
Hopefully this helps
In my case, my screen would brick or black out and freeze and I had to force restart my machine every time; so that pretty much gave me a clue that my problem was graphics card related. I checked my crash log again and found that the crash was actually related to the AMD Radeon graphics card. Since I have an Nvidia gpu, I disabled my AMD Radeon Display Driver and Ableton has stopped crashing so far.( 'AudioCalc' as 'Pro Audio'.

For example, assignment of a primary token may only be performed when a process has zero or one threads. )
