Will we ever get a launcher that actually works?

Look, I love the game, but the launcher is a mess. It never functions properly for me, and every time theres a patch, it gets stuck trying to apply the patch and I have to repair. Its even worse when I go through Steam.

    Most ESO Launcher issues can be resolved by simply closing the launcher and restarting your computer.

    If your ESO Launcher continues to get stuck, you should ensure that Automatic configuration Script and Proxy Server are disabled in your Internet options.
    These settings can be found by following the steps below:
    1.Open your Control Panel.
    2.Select Internet Options.
    3.Click Connections on the top panel.
    4.Select LAN Settings.
    5.Ensure that Automatic configuration Script and Proxy Server are disabled (unchecked).
    6.Once the settings are applied, restart the ESO Launcher.


    You can also try running your computer in selective startup mode:

    1.Click Start and type "msconfig" in the search box.
    2.Right-click on the msconfig.exe program and choose Run as administrator.
    3.On the General tab at the top, click on Selective startup.
    4.Uncheck Load startup items.
    5.Click on the Services tab and check the Hide all Microsoft services box.
    6.Click the Disable all button at the bottom
    7.Click Apply, and then click OK.
    8.Restart your computer.

    When your computer boots up again, it will be in selective startup mode. Try the game again and see if you have different results. If everything works correctly, then one of the service or startup programs was causing the issue. To troubleshoot which program is the source of the difficulty, re-enable a few programs at a time and try running the game again.


    If the above steps didn't work, please try the following:

    1.Navigate to the folder where the ESO Launcher is installed.
    2.Locate the folder titled ProgramData and delete it.
    3.In the folder where "ProgramData" was located, find the files "host.developer.Xlog" ("X" will be a number) and delete all of them execpt the one without a number (it should just be "host.developer.log").
    4.Restart the ESO Launcher and see if the issue persists.


    If you continue to experience issues with the ESO Launcher, you should uninstall and reinstall it completely.
