Hello all
What with all the crap I and many others have had to put up with this week, I have decided to do a clean install of the client on my iMac. Having completed this and being able to get back into the game with all my original addons, I am now trying remove the superfluous folders that I appear to have a few copies/backups of.
The ones I am interested in are the in documents folder, basically my addons. I have a "live" a "live_archive" a "livebak" and a "livexxx" Now I know i can kill off the last 2 as those are backups I made. I am also assuming i can kill off the live_archive as well? Leaving me with just "live" can anyone confirm?
Secondly, the game play files.....
- I originally installed in applications/games/ESO/ now i have 2 directories in there, "The Elder Scrolls Online" and "The Elder Scrolls Online UE"
- The clean install I left to go in the default location /application/Zenimax Online/
Again I am assuming I kill the original install off without affecting the new one? Again can anyone confirm?
I do not want to have to go through the install process again, though I am going to have to with my Macbook Pro tonight.
Would appreciate anyone chiming in who has a working copy of the latest patched game and can list the working directories they are using,
Many thanks

aldriq✭✭✭My 'live_archive' folder appears untouched since March so I'd say it's safe to remove and keep 'live'. Under my /applications/Zenimax Online/ I only have a 'The Elder Scrolls Online' folder.2 -
Slammer99uk✭✭✭Thank you for that, I have kept the same folders and all appears to be working fine.
I have just reinstalled on my laptop and will check the multitude of folders on there tomorrow

✭✭After the recent Update 12 (version 2.6.x), there needs to be only one folder in /Applications/ZeniMax Online: The Elder Scrolls Online, currently at 54.11 GB. Depending on how many supported languages you have chosen in the Launcher, it has three subfolders at the minimum (shown for English):
That's all you need to play the game.
