Basically when you have multiple accounts and want to scroll down through them to select the correct one, it seems that the only way to do that is to highlight them all and keep scrolling down to the end. Obviously this is very, very impractical once you start inputting more then 10 accounts into the drop-down menu.

Please create a scroller of some kind, like you would typically see on an ordinary internet browser/windows explorer to allow for functionality for people like me trying to find the correct account.

Find your EVE install folder, then the BIN folder inside. Then find exefile.exe and use that to launch your game.

Or if you're running Windows 7 run it and then when you're playing the game right-click on the game icon on your task bar and select "Pin this program to task bar."

And as someone pointed out in another thread about this very same topic, CCP is working on disabling our ability to use the Bin folder to launch Eve so we're basically screwed if we have multiple accounts, but damn man 10 accounts is insanity. And I haven't seen one single Dev response to the overwhelming hatred of the new launcher and in specific it's obvious omission of the "log out" button forcing you to completely reload the launcher for every account you want to bring up.
