ESO Launcher Not Connecting - Cannot Download Patch Manifest?

EmEm_Oh · July 2021

Is it July 8 or July 7.

ESO Launcher is taking a very long time to connect and display the usual events and images to the right within the launcher.

Server down?

Message I get in the pop-up: Error 210 - PatchManifestError_DownloadFail

When I select UPDATE, the launcher just hangs and another Error 210 pop-up.

I also cannot submit an official ticket because Game Consultant cannot run, either.

Will post updates if anything changes....

I'm having the exact same issue. Ran a repair and it still is giving the PatchManifestError_downloadfail

ZOS_Chiroptera helped. On that page referenced, I deleted a folder within the PROGRAMDATA folder. I did NOT delete the JSON file. Just the folder that is dated today which is something like HOST.17xxxxee5644544544545502cfxxxx, etc.

Delete it.

Then restart the launcher. See if that works. I also got an update 7.07 notification.

Was there an update today? This seems to happen after "auto" updates.

Thanks for the update regarding patching. With the download now working we will be closing the thread.
