Launcher Not Working

First let me start by saying the I've tried the VPN/Proxy thing, unchecked the boxes, then I took down my firewall and antivirus software, and it still hasn't solved anything.

My launcher either starts and stops at checking for application updates, or loading. Sometimes, it will get to the screen with the news and the patching bar. The patching bar either say initializing, updating, patching, or complete, all at 100%. Also, sometimes the "Update" button will appear, and when I click on it, it simply does nothing and disappears, while the patching bar still says 100%, but this time in the settings it say it is updating, and there's nothing I can do to cancel the update. I've even tried to click Repair and nothing happens.

Please help, I've tried a lot of solutions that ultimately amount to nothing. The only way that I can play is by heading straight to the login screen from the game's files, but that was before I had to patch the game, now it is stuck on the old version of the game and I cant play.

Thank you for your time!

    Also, when the launcher is stuck on updating, it creates a new set of files called "Bethesda.net_Launcher.exe_Locked" which has a bunch of locked files inside. If I let the launcher be stuck at Updating then it will render the application to open the launcher useless, afterward I have to re-download the game from this website to get the application working again.

    I have the same issue. I did all of those things that you also tried. Googling the issue has not really gave me any results that helped. It gets to 25% and then gives me this message:
    I would like to give this game another try before I go pay to play again.
    Yay cut and paste doesn't work.
    "content write failed" is my error message. Always at 25%
