Excel crash trying to sort large data file

ravimistry1 

It is always a good idea to name the Excel version and the operating system in advance.

At the same time, as far as possible (if not always), add your excel workbook / worksheet (without sensitive data) and explain your project / topic / problem related to the file as precisely as possible.

Now to your topic:

Since we can only make assumptions here, it would be advantageous if we go step by step from the beginning.

Does the problem only occur in this file?

Is the file in Ondrive or Sharepoint? ... Outside (USB, External HDD, CD, etc.) of the laptop?

Next, please check whether the Office applications are up to date.

Update Office with Microsoft Update

If this didn't help, move on to the next step.
