Matlab crashes when I use symbolic math toolbox

After the last update from MS -Feature update to Windows 10, version 1803 (known as April 2018)- Symbolic math toolbox crashes even with a simple line code (syms x). When I terminate the process, I have the following errors. Does the mentioned update causes the problem, and how can I solve it?

There is a problem with windows 10 which freezes when symbolic math toolbox is used , the best option is to switch to 2017a.
