Copy Documents/Elder Scrolls Online folder to new computer?

I'm setting up a new computer and have installed a fresh copy of Elder Scrolls Online. To expedite the switch, can I copy my entire Documents/Elder Scrolls Online folder to the new computer rather than recreate my addons, settings, etc.?

I have done exactly this and have no serious problems except one.

I did not plan for different screen resolutions between the two computers. A rookie mistake to be honest. It was a simple fix for the game of course. Some add-ons store their positions based on screen pixel distance from a reference point - that too was easily resolved.

Best of luck and here’s some good luck to you. At least you were smarter than me and asked first.

If you aren’t changing monitors then it likely won’t be an issue at all.

Thanks! That's good to know! It's my intent to unplug monitor, keyboard, and mouse from old computer and plug into new.

You should be fine, but if you do have an issue with any kind of settings files I would just try to repair ESO and then copy the Addon folder.

I remember I had a few issues with ESO when I copied it from my E: drive to C: drive but that may not have been anything to do with the Documents folder.
