    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Zenimax Online" is empty. Unless you mean Launcher Folder


    launcher.settings is uploaded as a text file because the original extension is not supported.

    1 - EU
    2 - Turkey
    3 - EU
    4 - Patched up from Beta, then official client downloaded on top of beta client

    Hello Moderator !

    The files you want are taking to long to upload.
    And I get big message from the forum saying its over capacity while typing this message.

    Should we post to the offcial facebook page instead they might have better capacity ?

    Regards,

    Are you trying to patch files our computers aren't giving you permission to change, thereby bugging the patch and defaulting to 'if in doubt, DL everything!' mode?

    Ok guys, we need some additional information from all of you so we can delve deeper.

    First, we need four files:
    • host.developer log file
    • Launcher.Settings file (located in the \Zenimax Online\Launcher directory)
    • A screenshot of your \Zenimax Online folder or a listing of any subfolders in your \Zenimax Online folder
    • a screenshot of a right click + properties of the The Elder Scrolls Online or The Elder Scrolls Online EU folder to determine the size of the data you currently have.

    Plus answers to these following questions:
    • Which environment were you patching when this happened? NA, EU, PTS?
    • What region are you actually in geographically?
    • What environment(s) are you showing in the patcher? NA, EU, PTS
    • Is this a brand new install or is it being patched up from a previous version?

    Thanks so much!

    Patched

    It shows I do not have enough space, but that is because i already have the game installed but still wants me to install again

    My game client launches fine manually from the exe in the Game / Client folder. How do I unbork my launcher so it recognizes where we are in the patch process and doesn't try to load the whole 23 Gb game again??

    My Current Game Version is 1.0.0.962841

    My log file is full of all kinds of errors...and WAY TOO LONG to post here. Nothing was changed on my settings... you guys broke this not me. Something you did first triggered a small 30 Mb patch... then put the patcher in Repair mode... then in Install mode for the whole game.

    This is the same experience 1000's of people are having right now... don't look for what we broke... look for what you broke.

    I was getting the "install" option on the launcher, but still had the game files in my directory. I got around the issue by starting the install, clicking game options/cancel, then game options/repair.

    After it downloaded the 2 gig patch it was ready to go at that point. You shouldnt have to redownload the entire game unless it deleted it from your directory.

    Is this a brand new install or is it being patched up from a previous version? Update from previous version. Current Version number listed is: 1.0.0.962841 - 2014/04/02 - 14:52 - (0.win.live.961669)

    I am NOT ALLOWED by the forums to upload Launcher.Settings.

    I copy and pasted the file and opened the copy in notepad. It reads as follows:

    I did the same, but after awhile it started patching/repairing again.

    I am currently backing up all 61 gigs of my live and PTS client before opening that launcher again.

    Indeed, mine began going through the repair/verify cycle shortly after my post; however, after the launcher went through the process once, it has returned to "play mode" again. Still, given the current situation, I'm not how long this status will last.

    (launcher.settings) Uploaded file type is not allowed.

    Sorry, its actually in german - I still hope it helps. Größe = size; Größe auf Datenträger = size on drive; Ort = location; inhalt = content
