    Support says this

    Please go to My Documents/The Elder Scrolls Online/Live and look for the UserSettings.txt file. Then perform the following steps:
    • Open UserSettings.txt with Notepad
    • Press Ctrl + F and search for RequestedNumThreads
    • This brings you to the line SET RequestedNumThreads "X" (with a number instead of X)
    • Change that number to 0 (zero, not the letter O)
    • Save and close the document
    • Restart the launcher and try to launch the game

    but still does the same thing

    If you have any type of internet security software try disabling it completely... Only way I can get past the Play button problem.

    Go to your installation folder and launch the ESO.exe directly in admin mode (right click > Launch as Administrator)

    closing my Antivirus (Webroot) worked.

    and in fact .. re-running a scan (in Webroot) will then re-enable the game to be launched even with Webroot active
