Game crashing and freezing worse since Hotfix

I am not even able to play more then 30 minutes now in PVE without a sudden and random freeze up or crash to desktop issue . I am running a new computer bought this year with Windows 10 . Great graphics card , processor and more ram then I need . The issue takes place in every zone and can even happen when standing still doing nothing at all . The drivers for everything on my PC are updated daily . The maintenance is done nightly . Other MMOs more graphic intense still run fantastic as I am beta testing some others . All my updates are current for add ons and the issue does not go away by disabling all add ons . Changes to graphics setting to lower levels does not stop the crashing .

This started during the weekend maintenance recently and has progressively gotten worse until today . Now it is just too frustrating and I need to write a bug report in hopes you will do a maintenance soon to address this . The bug is repeatable just be reloading the game and waiting 25-30 minutes . No specific playstyle seems to decrease or increase the frequency of crashes . I have replaced my old live folder just now to see if a fresh new folder will effect the issue . I will report back if it does .

This has been reported by multiple people in multiple threads @ZOS_GinaBruno and @ZOS_JessicaFolsom and I know you are aware . I just want to give more details in case any are helpful . Could we get any information on whether this is in fact a memory leak or something we can do on our ends until a maintenance release ? Please help because I know I would not even enter a dungeon or trial under these current issues . That's a big game breaker for many players here and hopefully a top priority in que for fixing .

Update - Creating a new live file did not solve the issue at all . Nothing so far has worked . Crashing still continues .

    Not sure if I have the same issue but my game keeps freezing up when a guard attacks me. All I can move is my cursor and I can go into the menu to quit the game.

    edit> So even when my bounty is very low a guard will stop me but suddenly my bounty goes up and the guard wants to kill me.. I didnt even do anything

    I also keep getting an error message when I quit ESO saying ESO has stopped working...

    Have updated my graphics card with no luck.
