Can't Log In: "Invalid Client" Error

vaxure · May 2014

I am getting an error for "Invalid Client" You've attempted to use an invalid or out-dated client. Please exit and update your client using the patcher.
After clicking this it closes the game.

I updated the client through the patcher prior to trying to log in. and do not have a current update to patch when relaunching the patcher.

The program shows Version: eso.live.1.0.7.980598

Hey there, @vaxure. Try clicking the Game Options setting at the top of the news feed on the launcher and selecting "Check For Updates." You should find the current client version there. Let us know if you're still unable to update your client.

Thank you for that update, @vaxure. The client version will be present on the bottom left of the login screen. It should read "1.0.7.984657." We've created a ticket so that a member of our Support Team can help investigate further. Thank you for your patience.
