Hello guys. Recently i bought ESO, and started downloading over the launcher. And after downloading 30/40 gb i closed the launcher. After i started it up the launcher stated that i didn't download anything and started downloading the whole game again, even though the pathcdata.depot folder is 30 GB large now. So, do i have to wait for it to fully download again or can i fix this somehow?

    Same boat OP...

    My game folder was 90GB large TWICE yesterday...

    Don't ask me how a 60GB game can grow by 30GB larger than it's suppose to

    Mine says it should end at 40 gigs (download file not installed game), and now its at 51 gig..too bad i have to download 500 kb/s..will leave it to download all day again. But id like for someone to help with this so other people can fix it without downloading few times.

    The game downloads more files than the install will be if I recall correctly, so you'll see a good 90gb or something stupid but when the install finishes tidying up then it will cut that back down to the space needed.

    One of the only ways I've found to download the game is set it going when I go to bed and it should be mostly done by the morning (I have a 12mb connection).

    Yeah, im doing that. Albeit at a slower pace, so it will take a bit longer. But my problem is that the game started downloading fresh. And this morning i closed it (the same as last time) but it started downloading the rest, and not from the start. So i think its just sassy about when it wants to download everything.
