Crashes to desktop on Windows 10

Hi,
I play FSX SE in window mode on Windows 10 install, where I often open the kneeboard, map and sometimes switch views to outside and back through the menu bar. After some time in flight, I usually get a freeze and a crash to desktop. From my search through the web this is a common problem and one of the causes is UIAutomationCore.dll, are there other known causes of this problem and do you know if there are any other UIAutomationCore.dll files default in Windows 10 applications which allow the sim to work without crashes if I would use them instead of that one default from the Steam install?

Thanks for your help
 
I used to have this happen to me, too, usually at the most inconvenient times (like on final in a B747 into HON after 6 hrs in the air). I found that increasing my computer's RAM from 8gb to 16gb helped tremendously.
 
I currently have 12 GB of RAM, but also have about a hundred airplanes in SimObjects. Does FSX load all of them on start or just those I select for flight?
 
Having to load about 9 gigabytes of airplanes every time would explain why it crashes a lot. But when I tested the crashes by loading a flight with a somewhat light on memory aircraft and then switching views like crazy it did not crash until I ended that flight and started a new one with another aircraft.
