For a start, posting the error messages here might get you more useful suggestions.

I believe there's a known bug in the latest release (unless it's been fixed already), where toggling items in the 'Additional Mods' category causes the game to crash on launch.  They should be ok if they're all left on.

Alternatively, I've had odd crashes with previous launches, often on world gen, which have been solved by downloading a fresh copy, and making sure to unzip into a new folder, with no remnants of the old version around to confuse things.

If that doesn't work, post the actual message and which toggles are causing it, and that may shed some light.
