Still Crashing, Need Some Assistance From ESO Please

I keep trying new things to resolve my crazy crashing, so far nothing has helped.
I tried something new and I did find an interesting bit of info. Because I clocked my RAM lower for last possible solution, I decided to re-run windows experience index to see how much it affected my PC's performance. I've run this probably about 6-8 times in the past, all before I loaded ESO and it always ran fine. Now, for some reason, running the windows experience index also crashes my PC exactly like ESO does. It has never crashed my PC before.
This is making me think that when I originally loaded the game, it installed/upgraded/changed the version of something I had already on my PC.
@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_TristanK ,
could someone please tell me a list of the 3rd party software items that the ZOS installer adds or checks to upgrade? It's starting to make sense now that its one of these software additions that's been persisting through all my ESO upgrades, that's responsible for my crashes. Perhaps someone happens to know what might be in common with the windows experience index and ESO?

Wily_Wizard✭✭✭Can anybody tell me the exact version of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable that ESO installs?
Some versions have been removed by my "clean-up" software, and Im trying to insure I have the exact right version for ESO installed. If you don't have the right version for your particular application it can cause a bit of.dll hell.0 -

I believe it is the C++ 2010 x86 redist. that it tries to install.NA-PC MegaServer

Wily_Wizard✭✭✭Thanks, that was it, I went ahead and uninstalled all of them, and then downloaded the ESO setup file, and ran it to re-install C++ and DX, just to make sure I had the exact files ESO was looking for. But ESO crashed 4 minutes after login, and then next time crashed immediately as soon the character load was almost finished, before I even got in the game.
Haven't really been able to play for a couple weeks now, this is so frustrating.

Wily_Wizard✭✭✭Something I noticed on crashing 2 days in a row was an immediate crash as soon as I used my 1H + Shield skill: Power Bash.
I was literally running at the mob, and when I got close, I hit my skill, and the game immediately crashed before I even saw the animation. When I tried to log back in, it crashed again before the character even finished loading. This same double crash happened 2 days in a row, on 2 different mobs in 2 different areas of the map.0
