    @stunrb19_ESO‌ I have tried that, but hopefully it will solve some of these issues for someone else.

    Ah ok, Did you add the file to "my documents\elder scrolls online\live"? The guide only says to put it in the elder scrolls online folder.

    Yes, I placed it in the correct file. My issue seems to be that Lord Dagoth Ur himself has possessed my game file folder.
    Lord, I was born a ramblin' man,
    Tryin' to make a livin' and doin' the best I can.
    And when it's time for leavin',
    I hope you'll understand,
    That I was born a ramblin' man

    I am having the same issue, but with a Mac. Beta worked, this current patch does not launch. Was told to respond on this thread. I attached relevant files, unfortunately the system wont allow me to upload the launcher.settings file.

    In answer to the questions:

    1) NA
    2) Japan. However I also tried connecting through a VPN in California, same problem. Previously played the Beta also in Japan with no VPN and worked fine.
    3) NA
    4) Patched the beta. Didn`t work so I re-installed everything. Still does not work.

    I know that my UserSettings.txt file was missing, so I copied and pasted what was mentioned earlier into the live folder. It started crashing instead of being a black screen with sound.

    @BlackOmega‌ "early access isn't a right" but when you charge an extra $20 for it and part of the reason I pay that $20 is I want early access, it's a bargained-for transaction. Your argument is like the guy saying "my new car doesn't have tires!" and being told "Hey, I sold you a car. Get tires on your own time!"

    I understand the frustrations, but BlackOmega was correct. Did you even read the Terms of Use provided conveniently at the bottom of the site. Do you have any idea what you actually agree to in playing the game?

    In Australian consumer law overrides their T&C's, flat out.

    If a company can't provide the service they claim to provide they have to give a refund of the full amount, regardless of whatever they want to put in T&C's.

    T&C's aren't a binding contract as you haven't signed anything and it'd be worth less than a verbal agreement as the Devs haven't verbally asked you to agree to anything.

    In a court of law T&C's have been thrown out the door many times.

    Open your client and go to game options, it's in smaller text just below account and store, click on the drop down menu and try to repair.

    This worked for me.
    Been here since Feb 2014 - You'd think I'd be half reasonable at this game by now...

    not only the launcher but I think the game itself have problem when start up, I try to go into the source folder to run using the file .exe but it still give me the same crash.
  • Siegfried_Greymane
    @michael5‌ yeah it's the eso.exe that causes the freezeup

    Easy to say when you are one of the few who can actually PLAY the game they are paying for. Everyone else here is unable to log in. Or even launch the game for that matter. Pretty sure we are allowed to complain. Unless you're willing to switch places with us.

    You know I've played a lot today and the only bug I came across was in the character design area. Zoom not working. All in all, I'm delighted. A game this size, expect bugs. You can buy a brand new car and have bugs when you get it. Put on your big boys pants all.

    If this doesn't work for you, find a friend who has it working, take a flash drive over to their house, copy their live folder, bring it home, replace your live folder with theirs, then go in and change the usersettings.txt, then click play. Worked for my GF's comp with this same problem and after hours spent with tech support I just tried this and it worked. Good luck and I hope it works for everyone.
  • Mojostealer
    Is the support section still working? I submitted a request for assistance by phone 29 hours ago, and assistance by email about 24 hours ago now. Haven't received any response on either, I understand the high volume of requests, but 29 hours? I took a vacation this week to play this game, and have spent the entire time so far attempting every fix I could find in forums with no success. I click play on the launcher, and see a background ESO process pop up, but that's all that happens.

    So guess what not only I have to deal with stupid lag (over a minute!) but now I cant even get into the game due to the ''unknown error''!
  • phelonious
    I have had an issue STARTING the game. Enough so that I am sorry I pre purchased it.
    It started in beta, I DLed the client, was excited to play, and crashed when I hit the Play button.
    I tried the repair feature, I uninstalled/reinstalled, I tried many times. VERY frustrating that I cannot get ANY sort of feedback on why this is happening.
    Now that the game is launched I try on the second day and I crash. I am not debugging, reinstalling, etc again. I have had it. Good luck with this ***.
  • Siegfried_Greymane
    @phelonious‌ This issue is known and being addressed. They've probably had 1000s of complaints about this same issue, they can't address them individually.

  • Mojostealer
    @Siegfried_Greymane They could at least put out a statement to that effect. Someone official saying exactly what you just said would help alleviate some concerns. As I stated above, I've received zero response in 31 hours now.

    Admitting this is a known problem with the program, as opposed to an incorrect setting somewhere within my system, which I'm spending countless hours searching for, and they're working diligently on a patch would be perfect.

    By Sithis! That didn't work for me @Rhokanov‌ and now I don't have an ESO folder in My Documents.

    If you lost the ESO folder then you uninstalled and then when you tried to reinstall something in your computer blocked the process. This is due to security problems or improper installation of the programs in your computer. It is difficult to get a clean install unless everything is perfect.
  • Siegfried_Greymane
    @hrdndv_ESO‌ I made sure it was all gone; I now have the folder from initializing the ESO.exe file, but my PC still completely freezes with no error message or anything. Just frozen mouse and system.

    It has to be something in your computer blocking installation. Possibly a background security program. Even if you are just running one security program, like Norton, Windows security sometimes freezes the internet connection. Maybe try finding and disabling all other programs running concurrently except graphics card... and reinstall graphics card? That's all I can think of that would be pretty easy. There is also a possibility that your internet provider software is blocking the installation. Reinstall your providers software and check the settings. Yuggh... there are a million things that can be blocking the installation.
