Big problems with Windows 11 release 24H2

robskij · October 3

ESO gets sluggish and sometimes totally unresponsive with sudden crashes.
Backing out from 24H2 to 23H2 solves the problem.
Tried this on 2 different PC's.

First, are you running Master Merchant?
Second, check on what you have at startup in your OS.
Third, yes check your addons AND see if any is doing the same as another addon(2 or more addons for the same need).

Windows 11 release 24H2 has been reported as causing problems with other online games. See microsoft-warns-of-windows-11-24h2-gaming-performance-issues

Thanks, but I'll happily stay on 23H2 for the time being letting you guys (ZOS) solve the problems. I am pretty certain that this is not any major addon problem as such but a deeper problem within ESO.

I have same problems,
After update 24H2 last night I have significantly lower FPS.
Pre update FPS was not getting below 100 in most intense scenarios, and now it dops to constant around 70-80, and in intense scenarios below 10FPS.

Had to disable my one addon AUI which stopped the game freeze in intense scenarios but still with this framerate is almost unplayable.
I tried all suggested options, and I am using the PC by defauly with the built in Administrator account.

pretty sure its the GPU 1080 ti. Its on 99% ingame. Installed latest Nvidia drivers and it improved things a bit by 15%. still not enough as its significantly slower then 23H2 by more than 40%. guess i will need to wait for a new nvidia drivers to be released or just reinstall windows

I have a 1050 ti and can confirm that, on latest drivers, ESO reliably crashes my PC after just a minute or so on minimal settings with all addons turned off after release 24H2 update
