Is anyone having problems getting Minion to work?

I have been away from the game for four years and recently started playing again. I wanted to update all my addons, so installed the latest Minion, but it doesn't work. It does not find my addons folder. I'm on PC and NA server. Has anyone else experienced this problem and, if so, have you found a solution?

Use the 32bit version, do not install to the default folder but use e.g. c:\Minion instead, Allow Minion in your Antivirus and Firewall tools (Windws Defender e.g., Windows Firewall).
Here is a "How to find the correct addon folder" which you need to select with Minion then:
https://www.esoui.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8858
-> Read below "Where do I need to install/extract the addon zip files to?"
Best way to take the screenshot ingame and watcha t the upper righ edge of your screen what foldername is shown. One folder above you'll find the "AddOns" folder then.
If Minion does not show any addons after you have chosen the ESO addons folder, wait 5 minutes, close Minion and reopen it again. Repeat this up to 3 times.
If still nothing shows up report your Minion.log and Minion.xml files here (start new thread and tell us what you did and tried already): https://www.esoui.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=183

Baertram, thank you very much for your detailed and very helpful reply. I was beginning to think no one would ever reply.

Baertram✭✭✭✭✭At best, if it's Minion related, visit www.esoui.com forums -> Minion sub section and ask there.
Also addon related questions can be answered there in the addon help/support forums or directly at the individual addon's comment section.Edited by Baertram on June 3, 2021 4:29PM0 -
DRJoeyPC✭✭The update has broken the app. All you need do is reallow minion through your firewall by adding minion as a new app1 -
Lags✭✭✭✭✭Just gonna leave this here since minion is a piece of garbage but the only real option for eso. And i just went through an hour of troubleshooting to fix a friends minion, that would open but load nothing. The fix i found was to go to settings and look for the default addon path and click the "reset default path" button. Then reload minion.
The default path is wrong and i guess the creators of minion dont care to fix it. Not sure why it impacts some people and not others, or why it seems to work sometimes and then brick, but that was the solution.0 -
ZOS_IcymodGreetings,
We have closed this topic as it was originally created in June 2021. In many cases, it's better to create a new thread on a topic that you want to discuss as opposed to bumping one that is rather old.
Thank you for your understanding.0
