this and also a very odd message I've never seen before "your credentials supplied by the launcher were invalid or improper format" and a simple "connect" button instead of account name and password fields

also "Invalid username/password" in launcher. the login failed message

I could hear ISD saying "please file a bug report" so I did.

Same error.

Twice got the message that I was entering an invalid username or password before I get the error in that image you linked.

For a horrible moment I thought I had been hacked as I have some *very* expensive ships on my toon.

For me, it says my password is incorrect for 2 accounts and give the error like the image at the begining for the other. My password isn't incorrect, I tried it several times and, if I launch EVE by running the ExeFile.exe, I can log in with my password fine. Stupid launcher is broken again (seriously, how can it be broken again already)!

Well I bypassed the launcher by going into the bin folder and launching directly from .exe which let me login to the game. I suggest trying that for now until the issue is resolved.

Having the same problem. And all my passwords work if i bypass the launcher and launch the client directly. And when after rebooting the launcher several times it took my password but no launch button appeared.

For those who don't know how to bypass the launcher, go to your eve folder>bin>exefile.exe this launches the client directly

confirming the exefile.exe workaround is good, you can also access it by using folder search in explorer "exefile.exe"

I've placed the launcher shortcuts in a folder to use as updaters after downtime.

duplicate icons in my taskbar were bothering me as it was.

that I should worry about losing my hearing is nonsense, because there will always be -=BASS=-
