I’m leveling a new character having not played WoW for a while.
I’m running into a new hard crash that occurs when I leave dungeons. It started off happening rarely, but seems to be happening more and more frequently.
When I right click the eye then “leave dungeon instance”, the game goes to a loading screen, but the progress on the screen doesn’t move from an empty bar.
The game becomes hard locked; I cannot close it in any way, including force quitting the process from task manager or even trying to kill it through commandline having taken command of it manually.
The computer is otherwise unaffected; the game at that point takes up zero cpu usage and nearly zero memory, all other programs work fine and I can happily put other windows on top of my wow window. However, nothing I do interacts with the wow window at all.
Anyone have any ideas what might cause this? I’ve upgraded all drivers I can to most recent versions, have tried without addons running, tried in windowed fullscreen and just fullscreen; none help.
It wouldn’t be so bad if it was just the crashes, but the fact that I cannot even force close the instance means I have to restart the pc to get back into wow. It’s a pain in the rear.
