EULA

Parcellus · February 2024

Not sure what is happening, but every time I now log into game,I am taken back to the initial installation routine of setting it up for the first time. Help, this is driving me crazy ????

You can open the usersettings.txt file and edit a line to fix this. Let me see what it is, and I'll edit it in shortly.

Okay, open the file in a text editor (like notapad); the two lines in my file are found at lines 262 and 263.

These are what mine look like currently, and I'm not having the problem you are:

SET ViewedAddOnEULAVersion "5"
SET AcceptedAddOnEULAVersion "5"

Make sure your file is NOT set "read only". Change those lines in your file as needed. Save the file, and make sure it's not read only after saving too.

If that doesn't work, you might need to post in the tech support forum. And - this is for windows; I have no idea at all how to fix it on console.

You might also need to change SET SkipEULAS to 1.

Make sure the house is glowing,the lock means untrusted machine,so might be making you accept every time.

ZOS_Hadeostry · February 2024

Greetings,

After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic, as it is about PC troubleshooting.

Thank you for your understanding

ZOS_Bill · February 2024

@Parcellus

Have you made the usersettings changes as suggested above?

If so, are you still having issues when launching ESO or have they been resolved?

Parcellus · February 2024

Bill, thanks for your reply
The settings in usersettings were correct. However, I discovered, that the correct version was on my microsoft one drive, which had stopped synching. The usersettings on my hard drive was not correct. After the Feb update, the wrong version of the usersettings file was being accessed, thus causing the issue.
Best Wishes John

ZOS_Bill · February 2024

@Parcellus

Thank you for the update!

Just to confirm, have you fixed this issue by either enabling syncing or using the correct usersettings file?
