How do I install the hotfix? I don't have Steam and don't want it.
Absolutely experiencing this same phenomenon in my cities now since the latest patch. I have to assume that you guys know what's up since reports of this issue appear to be widespread but if you want more bug reports/file uploads, just say the word. And letting us know what you know and when the next patch will be is always an approach worth considering!

How do I install 1.2.3F1? I am not on Steam, and I don't see it in the Paradox mods.
Again, where do I find this fix? I am not on Steam. This fix must be somewhere from which I can download it. Please help.
The platform where you play should automatic update the game, same as a regular patch
How do I tell in this hot fix has been installed? In many applications, there is a way to determine the last software update. I cannot find a way to check in Cities Skylines II. Any insight would be appreciated. When I read others discussing this hot fix, they indicate that they installed it themselves.
Thank you.
Thank you.
In the main menu, you'll see the version you're on at the bottom left-hand corner.

I found the version and fix identifier in the location you wrote. Hot Fix 1.2.3F1 appears to have been installed automatically.
Thank you, Splashgod!

You are correct. Between you and Splashgod, I have determined that the fix was automatically installed.

Yes, that's right, Cities Skylines 2 crashes and throws me to the desktop at the least expected moments. Sometimes it crashes immediately after starting the game. When I restart the game, I can sometimes play for up to an hour, but I constantly save every action I take. In the long run, however, this is tiring. After an hour, it is enough that I move to another part of the city and the game immediately throws me to the desktop. There is no rule for this. Honestly, I don't know what it depends on.
Interestingly, I again have a problem with the demand for residential zones. I have 206,000 inhabitants and either this number decreases or increases. I can only build commercial, industrial and office zones, and yet the demand for residential zones is low.
There is practically no traffic in the city. Residents use public transport, which can suddenly disappear, even though there are no obstacles. They are also capable enough to walk to cities that are several kilometers away.
I have the main capital, two large cities and several smaller ones. Besides, there is a constant problem with one product "drinks". An icon appears above the buildings that the goods are too expensive. Another problem is the caravans. Practically above every building there are icons about uncollected bodies.
When I think I have mastered the topic, another wave of death comes in a moment. I have satisfied residents, taxes in the black, but there is still something wrong. At times I don't know what could be done, because there is really a lack of any messages that would suggest what the problem is and how to solve it.
Additional Points:
- The user is experiencing frequent crashes to desktop with no apparent cause.
- Residential demand is low despite having a large population.
- Public transport disappears unexpectedly (trams).
- Citizens walk long distances to other cities.
- There are issues with the "drinks" product being too expensive.
- There are problems with uncollected bodies and death waves.

I`m having the same problem with CS 2 crashing to desktop random, from minutes to several hours. I played for the first time just now. After the turbulent launch, I decided to wait for they to patch the game. After the last one and reading some comments saying that the game was in a better spot from launch, I decided to give the game a try. My very first time playing, I thought to myself to play without mods, thinking about stability and to try the game vanilla. I had two consecutive crashes, I think about 10 minutes into the game.
After that I could play some hours without crashes. I learned that I would need autosaving, set that to like 5 minutes, and manual saving after finishing some projects that I would not like to do again if the game crashes. I observed that some of the crashes is related to going too "fast" with the mouse, panning or zooming the "camera", but it happens in unexpected others time too.
I have to say that it was not a good experience for trying the game for the first time, and after some time from launch. Apart from this stability/crashes problems, there is the problem with game`s mechanics. Traffic on the city is inversely proportional to number of population, citizens walk long distances, and others that already have been discussed on the forum. I`m using some mods to fix this problems, and having a better time than vanilla, especially for getting a real experience with mass transit on my cities (Transit, Realistic Parking Mod, Traffic Simulation Adjuster, Realistic Trips and Lazy Pedestrians), all of than that really was needed on the vanilla game. The problem is that I don't think I will achieve high city population with these realistic settings, because of the stability and optimization of the game.
Despite the instability/crashes, and problems with the game's mechanics, overall it's a fun game, especially with mods, and has a lot of potential for the game. I hope that despite the turbulent launch and the lack of speed in patches for fixes and unfulfilled promised features, the game is not canceled and continues to receive updates to realize its full potential.

Where did you get that idea from? I haven't seen any messages on any platform mentioning anything about an update due today.I thought we were going to have an update today and it was going to fix the crashes

It's been almost a month since the last patch and they usually release on Wednesdays. Plus there's some activity on steamdb.
Time means nothing as does the SteamdB. It gets updated quite often but before anything is released, it can be a long time away.
