Error 201?

tintintin070preub18_ESO
About two days ago I first got the Error 201. I had played the game a day before and then the next day it wouldn't work. I'm sure it has to do with connection of some sort because the game also says "Cannot retrieve announcements" underneath the announcement box. I have tried repairing the game and I've checked for updates 3 times. I tried allowing it into my firewall and I did everything that Zenimax says to on the forums. It still won't work, please help.

    I'm having the same issue...

    My last log in was 2 days ago and I successfully installed the latest patch, no problems. Today, I can't log in :neutral_face: Keep getting Error 201. I tried the steps suggested on the help page, but still can't log in. I'm trying to connect to the NA server. ...sigh...

    Just curious, are you starting the game from the launcher? Can you try starting the game straight from the .exe file?

    Hello all,

    The error 201 could be due to an updates problem.
    Could you check any updates that your launcher didn't install ? Also, you can try a repair.

    If nothing is working, could you give us your ticket number (if you have one) please ? If not, we would suggest you to make one.

    @ZOS_PierreL , thank you for the info! I managed to fix my issue. Didn't realize my Norton had it's own firewall and it had somehow blocked ESO on its own...weird :p

    I've just had this on Norton too!!
    Launcher was set to 'auto' and eso was set to 'block'
    It happened just after an auto updated for norton' so it's obviously got a bit confused afterwards!!
