Delete-able files?

Tinolyn

So I've noticed over time my ESO folder/game is taking up significantly more space than when I first installed it -- 50 or so Gigs instead of the 25 or so at the beginning. I realize some of that is improvements and new stuff added to the game. But is there excess info in that folder I can just remove?

For example, back when I played Warcraft, you could delete the old patch files once the patch was applied. Is there something like that with this game?

I doubt it.

I had to reinstall the game back in March - completed deleted it and did a clean install of just the latest version from the website - and mine is 56.4GB, excluding the PTS and with only English voice files. I don't remember exactly but it was definitely over 50GB when I first reinstalled it too.

So it seems unlikely it'd be lots of old files which are no longer used which are eating up space. But someone who knows more about exactly what all the different files do may be able to identify some you could get away with deleting.

Well, that's in a different directory than the game directory, and it's only 3.5ish megs, so I'm not thinking that's gonna make the dent I'm hoping for.

PTS and Live for me is 113 GB. Don't think its gonna shrink much.

Someone has told me about a file delete that will help load times in cyrodil but I dont know much about it. Maybe somthing to help your search though.

Delete System32, that'll open up a bunch of space...









(Disclamer...This is a joke, do NOT delete system32...)
