Hi I just finished reformatting my PC, I stored a copy of the game files so I could transfer them back but it required a fresh install, just wondering if I can save some time and place the patches from folder X to the new folder and if so which folders are relevant?

    This worked for me before, so hopefully it will work for you as well.
    What I suggest you do is install the launcher directly from download (not from disc, as that will reinstall the whole client as well) so all the directories are set up properly, then when it starts to download the client data files, stop the download and paste everything from the three Elder Scrolls Online folders (depot, vo_en, and the other one whose name escapes me) into the \Zenimax Online\The Elder Scrolls Online\ folder (or \Zenimax Online\The Elder Scrolls Online EU\ if you're on the EU server). Start up the launcher again and it should no longer need to download anything.
    I recommend you run Repair afterwards though so it can check that everything's there properly.
