    An hour ago, game crashed and all my settings were lost. I even had to accept the EULA again. :D

    Did it crash your machine or CTD?

    My machine reboots about once a day when playing ESO. I'm not sure if it isn't a problem with my computer.

    Could that possibly be a graphics card and/or driver issue? Search around on this forum, I'm pretty sure I've saw a few other threads mentioning the same thing that I believe were solved. @ImmortalCX 😁👍🏻

    I remember crashing the other day after logging into Eastmarch at the Kynesgrove wayshrine. Have a sneaky suspicion people were spamming wall of frost and ran into that bug that caused the game to crash.

    Had 2 crashes today (game just froze and closed completely) and others have experienced dc's too .... methinks the 'fix' is coming apart at the seams tbh.

    Make that 3 for me (just standing in Craglorn) and 2 others dc'ing in a dungeon just now. Sigh.

    Crashing and lag has increased for me the past couple of days as well. Previewing items in the Crown Store last night kicked me to the desktop.

    The only CTDs I've had recently were while playing on my MacBook Air-- once today, and once just before the post-Markarth update that occurred partway through the Undaunted event. Both times the error report showed suspiciously even-numbered numbers of seconds since boot, as in exact multiples of 1000. That made me wonder if it might be some automatic thing the macOS is doing at certain intervals after boot which interferes with ESO and causes it to crash, such as something related to the Wi-Fi connection, or anything else that might cause ESO to choke. Note that I'm not suggesting anything about any issues that other players might be having, just these two specific CTDs that I recently experienced on my MacBook Air.

    I have been running dungeons all night, vet and non vet on my healer. Every single run has had someone crash, literally every single one. It's frankly getting ridiculous.

    I had similar issues after the last patch. Turns out it was my Addons. I turned off all out of date Addons and no issues now.

    I have not seen a crash in game for a VERY long time.

    Gotta ask, did you check your add-ons are not an issue and are you sure your video card drivers are up to date?

    Also have you checked for viruses?

    Be sure to post your crashes in this thread
    https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/552923/crash-to-desktop/latest

    This is the "official crash thread" according to Zos. This is the thread that Zos refuses to pin which would make it easier for us to find. This is the thread that Zos hopes will fade away so it looks like there are no problems with this game.

    Reference to thread above, from recently unpinned official issues post:

    All the "delete your addons" comments - if it was that, which it isn't, ZOS would not have had a producer letter acknowledging the crashes, nor would they have had 2 patches to try bandaid it ........ jeez.

    As for the virus suggestion, yeah, all these people crashing suddenly got a virus :D

    Console players have increased crashing, so i don't think it's an addon problem.

    ZOS is pretty adamant of crashing my game when I am winning BGs :disappointed:

    Straight to desktop ofc. That's what I call customer service. Saves me the trouble of having to create a second desktop and open my task manager there to able to shut down the game.

    Unfortunately, they forget to log me off. So I spent the next 5 minutes trying to log back in again. :disappointed:

    Hah! I thought I was the only one having severe crashes like this. FPS suddenly drops, drops, drops then the cursor stops responding and then the whole Windows crashes XD

    Seems like the memory rabbit hole leak is still around.
