This may be due to an older graphic card and or Operating System. darkhound1 attempted to build in memory dumps to correct the problem, but they may not work.

I installed windows 10 pro with 16GB of RAM
the video card with 6 GB ...
for example (all my games run better on the pc than in the xbox)

I get this when I start the game:

While running game code:
File "renpy/common/00start.rpy", line 273, in script
python:
File "renpy/common/00start.rpy", line 273, in script
python:
File "renpy/common/00start.rpy", line 277, in <module>
renpy.call_in_new_context("_main_menu")
File "game/screens.rpy", line 792, in execute
File "game/screens.rpy", line 792, in execute
File "game/screens.rpy", line 801, in execute

File "game/screens.rpy", line 537, in execute
File "game/screens.rpy", line 537, in keywords
File "game/screens.rpy", line 1583, in set_resolution
Exception: Could not set video mode.

It starts up in 720p, which then can't be changed, and a click on any of the options results in the game hanging until shut down hard.

Win10 Pro on an Nvidia MX150/i5-8250U based laptop.

I could help if you can provide some details of what you were doing when this happened.
How long were you playing, what did you do before the crash.
Also it would help to know if you are using an integrated GPU intel/amd or in case of a descrete GPU, what model and brand. E.g. Nvida rtx 1060 is enough, I don't need the exact model or OEM.
It's not a windows memory problem, but a problem that your GPU is running out of memory. Might be a GPU driver problem or whatever.
What you could try to do is:
use shift+G inside the game
at the top left you have renderer
- automatically choose (default -> it will use opengl if possible)
- force angle/directx renderer
- force OpenGL renderer
- force software renderer

--> try selecting ange/direct, then quit, close the game and reopen it
This might help. If not you could try sofware renderer.

Basically there is not much I can do. It's a problem between Ren'py and the GPU or it's driver. On some occasions memory is not freed as it should be. It's not an issue of my game and it cannot be solved from within the game, except by trying to force GPU memory refresh with a ren'py command, which is already done it a lot of places.

What's your display resolution?
Can you play the game if you don't try to load/save or go to the options?

This is not helping. From your crash it's not the same at all. Are you also not able to open the preferences and are you unable to play at all?

It is exactly my situation and I don't recall anything similar with previous versions of this game.

Btw, I'm playing on older Dell laptop (E6440) with 16GB of RAM and Intel HD 4600 on Windows 7 SP1 Pro 64-bit.

as soon as I open the game after selecting load, it remains still a few seconds after the crash starts, I tried to go back
but nothing; in a second attempt the same thing happened to me only when I turned back the story started from the beginning and then crashed after talking to joy

It would really be nice if you could answer my questions.
- what's your display resolution?
- can you play the game if you don't try to load/save or go to the options?

In the meantime, please try the following fix. I'm 99% sure it will work, although it means you will only be able to play at 1280x720 until I come up with a better idea.

Copy the content of the zip into your game folder (unpack it!).
Just to be 100% clear. Inside the zip is a folder named game. Inside that folder there are 2 files.
These 2 files need to be placed in the folder: "on your pc wherever you installed HI"/game
If you are not asked if you want to overwrite 1 file, you did not put it in the correct place.

Everyone can use the included "screens.rpyc" file. The next version will have it anyway.
If you are able to change the resolution depends on the file "use_fixed_resolution_720x.txt". if it is present in the "your HI folder"/game, the resolution changer will be disabled. If you remove or rename the file, resolution chages are enabled again.

EDIT: Feedback if this works for you would be appreciated.
If this works, I will try to support "use_fixed_resolution_900" and "use_fixed_resolution_1080" as well.
