First of all, i think i need to clarify some points before start this topic. I am not those annoying whiners and i will share my experiences here, maybe it can be useful for the develoeprs/comunity.

My motivation for this topic was that so much problems being happening recently and i think its time to me to talk about them here.

There are a lot of good points about it but i think that this is not the time to talk about them.

- It breaks a lot and freeze sometimes

- Once some accounts are online and running i cant login new accounts, it says: "cant copy something because there are other accounts running" (this is not exactely the message, but its very close to this).

- Very common that my saved login data suddenly brokes, and need to add the accounts again

- Some accounts just disappear

- Sometimes, need to do some tries to run the launcher until it works

- Its .exe launch order is a huge mess (i am not sure if this is related to the launcher, but might be windows)

- Sometimes, all the accounts are shuffle (you add them in this order abc1, abc2, abc3... then, suddenly its: ab3, abc1, abc2...)

- Sometimes, need to click to launch multiple times the same account, because the launcher cant launch it

There are some other problems, but i cant remember them now. Will update the topic when i remember it.

Meanwhile, i am back to fight and see if i can login

I have never seen these problems, so they are probably related to your environment. I would recommend removing the hole ve installation and then clean it up manually. Make sure to clear windows virtual store (%localappdata%\VirtualStore) for any eve related files. There shouldn't be any, but might. Software can't to my knowledge detect if the files it reads are from there or from reals source.

If you launch clients in order abc1 abc2 abc3, the abc3 will be the top most and the abc2 second top most? so it works as intended. So you actually would like to launch them in order of abc3, abc2, abc1 so the abc1 is the top most.

When the login token is revoked by the server, you need to relogin. For example this happened when the sso server released tokens to wrong users and as a result all sso tokens was purged.

I presume the account shuffle is related to updates. I at least need to look into this and create bug report when I know when it happens.

I udnerstood what you told, but its no true with me. If i launch one account, then like one minute after, or two, launch another, they have an order abc1, abc2, abc3... but then, suddenly they shuffle in a pseudo-randomic way. [annoying for multiboxers]

I did not noticed this yet being related to updates. Another point is that DT sometimes make a mess with my launcher (i know, this is very, very weird but some stuff happens with my launcher when its up during DT or right after that).
