My iMac keeps crashing

My iMac keeps crashing. Used to be once every 3 days and I'd send a report but lately it's a few times a day? I did the latest update so I have no idea how to fix this problem

Hello!


I believe we need to proceed with an EtreCheck report. EtreCheck is a useful App to diagnose and identify issues, both hardware and software. It is trusted by many users. Please follow the steps outlined below:


1. Navigate to: https://etrecheck.com and get the free version of EtreCheckPro.

2. Download it. It is a free and trusted app. It is often recommended here on Apple Support Communities.

3. Open EtreCheck, and before running the report, be sure to check “Allow full Drive Access” at the bottom of the EtreCheckPro window.

4. Run the report, and put it in a post, as shown here: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-250000211. We will then examine the report for issues in your Mac.
