this is crash.txt report.

My laptop is 1 TB HDD
8 GB RAM
No ssd
My general laptop usage is heavy.

1) I am using it alone, without using other programs-> pycharm still gets crashed
2) I use discord for streaming in study with me discord=> it still gets crashed.
No matter whatever I do, it keeps getting crashed.

What to do?
Is there good program to run python code?
There is vs code but it shows that terminal code which is annoying to me. Is there a way to remove those cmd codes there and just see the output.

Sublime text doesn't take cares of indentation I hate that. I tried learning python at first from ST and it killed my motivation for learning python. Pycharm is great but it keeps getting crashed. :(

PyCharm is great but it's a pretty intense program meant for professional developers. Based on what you've shared I would not recommend you use it. I love VS Code for Python. What is the output you see that you are trying to remove?

someone got that..and helped me. I was trying to hide that terminal output that comes like C;/users...cd...bla bla..
I think I should go with VS code. But loved pycharm..looks like that's meant for high end laptops...

I have opened it for an hour. It hasn't restarted till now..so ig it's good.
 
Awesome! You can customize so much about VS Code, one of the many reasons I like it for Python work.

agreed...i didn't know about that earlier and avoided it.
 
My recommendation: some of the newer version of MyCharm retrogressed with performance, particularly in the debugger. Try an older version of PyCharm, such as 2018.1, and see if that still crashes.
