The disappearance happened within recorded history, meaning the Dwemer (who are elves) had interactions, war, and empires alongside the living races. Then, suddenly, the vanished. A sudden cessation of communication and existence.
Current consensus is that their chief engineer, and thus leader, Kagrenac, utilized tonal magic (which the dwemer invented) to transcend the mortal plane, Mundus.

I mean they never fully resolved it though. If I recall the other theories are kinda the dwarves being a) all dead (many theories) b) elsewhen (time displacement), implying they return or were responsible for other time displaced phenomena in the past. c) something else entirely happened at the same time.
The fact they can’t be reached via portal kinda suggests they’re essentially dead.

I really wish they had explored this at all. They set up something neat, then let it languish.
