I have read the threads on how to fix this solution, yet nothing has worked for me. I press play but it just greys out for a couple seconds then goes back to normal. Could a moderator please address this solution, and if they already have could somebody redirect me to it?

Thank you

    I am having the same problem after the recent patch. The game just won't start. I press the 'Play' button and nothing happens.

    Same here. All I got was an email saying the server is offline. It's been over 24 hours now and I've already paid a sub. Help please?!

    I solved my issue by temporarily disabling my realtime shield on webroot long enough to reach the login screen. It seems to be a firewall issue. I hope this helps someone else out!

    People with this problem seem to either be having their anti virus / firewall software blocking connections or they have a permissions problem.

    Try closing down the firewall/anti virus software temporarily to see if this is the cause of the problem.

    Otherwise, go to your installation folder and launch the ESO.exe directly in admin mode (right click > Launch as Administrator)
