Possible Launcher continual loop workaround.

I was having the issue where the launcher would verify all files then download the entire game then reverify and download the patch then reverify and download...etc..

You get the idea one endless and seamless loop.


For that, I found the following because I knew I had already downloaded all the files.

**USE AT YOUR OWN RISK**

**This could very easily destabilize your game**

Try going into your client folder ( mine was under: program files/Zenimax Online/The Elder Scrolls Online/game/client/ ) and running the eso64.exe file as an administrator.


I found this completely circumvented the launcher and allowed me straight into the game from which I quickly teleported into summerset to ensure I could reach it.

After which I logged out and relaunched the launcher and it came up with a secure "play" button and took me straight back in.


I probably still have files to repair or a new launcher to download to ensure the stability of my game... however it did fix the endless loop the launcher was taking me on as it had already downloaded the entire patch multiple times.

**Again this will only work if you are sure you actually downloaded all the required files from the patch and even then may not.**

    Be aware I did find a couple of missing textures that are blacked out in my game and now that I have stopped the loop I am running a repair function.


    Will let you know more as I find out.

    Did the repair quite easily this time and all my textures are back and my launcher no longer loops.

    So for me, this was a complete fix.

    Start task manager and you might see loads of ZosCrashReporter.exe repair things going in processes. Close the launcher, stop all the processes and start again and it might work. Just did for me.
