Eso Launcher/Login is slow

swook33b16_ESO · January 2022

Anyone else have problem with the launcher since yesterday. The launcher is starting up really slow, and once its up its really slow to start. yesterday I managed to get to character select menu and I selected a character to log in but it took 100 Years to get in and then it logged me out. So tried again and still took 100 years to get in. Still haven't changed, still taking 100 years to get in. This has happend before but that was 2 years ago. but it was fixed after one day. I tried to repair but nothing happens. Its just the Eso launcher that is not working.

Don't want to miss the free 100k from the monthly reward....

Try without any Addons.

Not sure about this but I remember it doing this once for me on one pc. If you try to elevate the launcher to admin level in windows it might help. Not suggesting you should but you could try if it that helps and see if you could pinpoint the problem after that.

Try the latency troubleshooting below to see if that helps with your loading speeds.

Nothing worked and afterwards windows started to act weird and eventually crashed. Al the other games worked fine like wow and swtor or any singelplayer game but as windows was acting weird I decided to reinstall windows and now it works.
Maybe it was time anyway since last time I installed windows was almost 2 years ago.

But thx for the help everyone.
