How to cancel the PTS download in the ESO launcher?

Serenez · June 2024

Somehow the PTS started downloading in the launcher and I do not wish to download 80 plus gigs at the moment.
I am now prevented from updating the live game as it tells me the launcher is busy and I must download PTS first.

I 'may' have figured out how to stop it by using the instruction in the following post:

I followed the instructions and then re-launched the launcher and it stopped the PTS from downloading and it actually started to download the live update

We are glad to hear back that you've figured out how to stop the PTS download. Since this has now been resolved, we are going to close the discussion.
