Patcher stuck at 33 percent/scanning files

For years, for literal YEARS, this has been a known problem. I have posted, over the YEARS I've played this game, multiple threads and submitted multiple tickets about how your patcher gets stuck, for no reason, at 33 percent, and/or infinitely scans files, and I've seen dozens of other posts about the same issue. Just thought I'd let you know that the problem, which you have refused to fix since 2011, is still there.
