1. Run the launcher, let it freeze and crash and shutdown by itself once.
2. Open the patchdata folder located here: PC > (C:) > Program Files (x86) > Zenimax Online > depot > patchdata.depot
3. In this folder you should see some Partial Download files named something like "depot_-1to269.26." The partial download is what's messing everything up. Don't delete these just yet, though.
4. In another window. Locate the "host.developer" files here: PC > (C:) > Program Files (x86) > Zenimax Online > Launcher.
5. There's gonna be one called "host.developer" and potentially "host.developer.(a number)," open whichever one is larger, it will typically be around 400,000+ KB.
6. Scroll to the bottom of the the "host.developer" file and you should see a bunch of error messages that say something like this:02/25/2019 12:15:04 Hostname not found in whitelist (151.205.0.27) 02/25/2019 12:15:04 WebGet Error: (http://151.205.0.27:80/pdata/052584 blah blah blah blah)
7. See that link there? After "WebGet Error:" there is a link in parentheses. This is important, that's a link to the file(s) you'll need to download.
8. NOW, look back at your patchdata.depot folder. Look at the names of any Partial Download files you see, only 1 will have the same name that you find in the link.
(Example: http/blahblah/eso/blahblahblah/depot/depot_269to271/depot_269to271.z01 is to download file depot_-269to271.z01)
9. Copy that link, and paste it into google chrome. The file should immediately start downloading.
10. If you have multiple Partial Download files, you can just edit the last couple digits of the link. So if you need file depot_269to271.z01 and depot_269to271.z02, you can repost the link into google chrome and change the ".z01" at the end to ".z02" or ".z03" or ".zip" and so on for each file you need.
11. Once you have downloaded all your files, take them and put them in that patchdata.depot folder and now you can delete any "Partial Download" files that are in there. Your installer now has the correct files it needs to finish the installation.
12. Also delete the host.developer files, you don't need them anymore. They'll recreate themselves if another issue arises.
13. Run your ESO launcher, it should install without any freezing or crashing.
Hope this helps!
