Deadlock detected

Hello, after the latest update, I started getting the "Deadlock detected" error in "Heist." The game freezes, and after about 5 seconds, the error appears. After about 10-15 seconds, the game unfreezes and disconnect from server. If I click OK or close the error window, the game closes too. I haven't been able to find a cause or pattern for this issue, but I only encounter it in "Heist"—sometimes right at the beginning, sometimes when opening a large chest using a skill, and sometimes just for no reason. This can happen multiple times during a single contract. I might open one chest, start opening a second, and get a crash on it, then re-enter, open the second chest, and get a crash on opening the third, for example. I've tried almost every tip on the forum and done almost every basic thing I could think of to fix the problem (updating my graphics card drivers, verifying file integrity, reinstalling the game and deleting all files, deleting DXCache, trying moving the error window to a second monitor and continuing to play, changing the renderer, disabling MTX, etc.), but nothing has helped. Sometimes, after a crash, some effects would "brick" (Cyclone would only render 1m from the character, Shockwave would lose some effects) and would take a long time to load—a minute or two. The performance graph doesn't show anything abnormal during gameplay, before the crash, or at the time of the crash. My PC doesn't freeze; I can easily minimize it at the time of the crash and use the browser or file explorer. I'm attaching a link to Google.Drive archive, which contains the client log, DxDiag, screenshots, and a video of the error. I'm ready to provide all the necessary information and conduct additional tests if necessary. Please help me solve this problem.
