Since the Firesong DLC and update went live on PC and Mac earlier today, numerous players have been plagued with crashes, often having the game simply close without any error message or explanation minutes after launching it.
Luckily it seems this is a problem you can fix - here's how.
How to Fix Firesong CTD in ESO
If your Elder Scrolls Online client is crashing to desktop since the Firesong update, then it's very likely that this problem is being caused by addons being incompatible with the latest update.
Specifically, the addon library NodeDetection Lib seems to be the culprit. Disabling this should solve the problem and allow you to keep playing ESO as normal.
You can do this by pressing ESC in-game to open the menu, navigating to the Add-Ons menu and unchecking the box for the NodeDetection library.
According to a discussion about the topic on ESOUI, this is an issue on ZOS' end, so the addon developers won't be able to fix this with an update until that is resolved. So until then it's best to just leave the affected add-ons turned off.
