Is an actual programmer looking into these or is it still not deemed to impact enough players and Square Enix's bottom line for the problem to be be fixed for real? I was having the same problem per another ticket, ended up installing on the C drive which somewhat fixed it for some time (as in I was having fewer crashes). I am having the same problem again, and the timing is indeed suspicious given that patch 5.35 just dropped. There are so many of these threads where Square Enix essentially ask customers to go through a laundry lit of steps, each more non-sensical than the other (just falling short of asking PC customers to buy a PS or and XBOX). The only sensible conclusion is that the code is a broken mess that needs to be fixed... To be very clear, the only way to get out of one of these badly coded areas of the game is to use another computer when logging in. How many people will bother and for how long before they unsubscribe? How many of these tickets that were moved to the closed section due to OP inactivity were in fact a lost customer?
