Maintenance for the week of May 25:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – May 25
• ESO Store and Account System for maintenance – May 27, 6:00AM EDT (10:00 UTC) - 4:00PM EDT (20:00 UTC)
It's popping up for me a lot, but it really doesn't seem to mean anything. I just close it and move on with my life - the game runs fine when I start back up.
I have been skipping the launcher entirely aswell. It always executes itself on multiple instances, lurking hidden in my taskmanager gnawing down on my CPU. Whenever I shut down the game, the launcher becomes unresponsive for a solid minute only to spit out the same exact crash report.
I also came to notice that I get far less often booted from the server, when I launch eso64.exe directly from the install directory without steam and the launcher running.
Almost every time I quit the game and most times when the game crashes. The other times when the game crashes, it's a full system lockup or hard reset, so no chance to see the popup.
I'm fresh out of outrage, but I could muster up some amused annoyance if required.
