Yup, few times, but not sure which addon causing that.

I do not think its a add on...

I am pretty sure that the errors esoUI/ingame/utility/textsearchmanager is part of actual game code.

Yeah I just got that a few minutes ago. Looks like the patch today messed something up. I would also tend to believe it's an addon an am not too worried about it messing anything up apart from the error message.

It isn't from an add-on, because I don't use any add-ons and I've been getting it. We've posted about it in the Bugs forum. You can just (E) Dismiss Error and the game continues as though nothing bad happened, so it isn't a game-breaking bug, just an annoying one. Given the specific details we've reported, I imagine it should be easy to fix and will hopefully get taken care of in the next incremental patch-- i.e., in a couple of weeks.

Yeah I've seen this too. I disabled my add-ons but it still pops up.

Yes same here both times I have visited the fence today.

Yep, getting it on all fencing since last update.

No add-ons and getting it. PC NA

yup. PC/NA (non-steam).

Managed to copy the text in one error message. Pressing fullstop . to get into cursor mode did not work while this error was active for the other times this bugged out.

Just got the same error after interacting with Fezez (only once, even though I sell him stuff like every few minutes):

Edit: It got immediately followed up by:

Edit2: on testing, it happens when I hit the "Mail" button while trader interface is open. Just closing the trader interface doesn't cause the error.

Same here, EU.

SAME. every time.

That's it, have it too since Friday...
