Greetings fellow mmorpg players, to put it simple i had a problem opening the game today through steam. The launcher was opening but when i clicked the "play" button nothing happened. After a while an error popped up which said there is a problem with Microsoft visiual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable - 10.0.30319 and Microsoft visiual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable - 10.0.30319. I tried deleting them and re-installing them, looked in the forums for a solution but none of them worked. So i had this idea of downloading the game from the elderscrollsonline website instead of steam. Before the installation ,there was an option of making you select wether you want to download direct x and Microsoft visiual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable - 10.0.30319 or not. So i confirmed that i wanted to download direct x and Microsoft visiual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable - 10.0.30319 and i stopped the installation after they were downloaded.(Dont worry about installing the game entirely if you already installed it through steam.) I then opened the game through steam again and the error wasnt there anymore. It just fixed itself. I hope this will help anyone else like it helped me.
