Patch 2.0.3 Broke my Launcher

Avindra · March 2015

After patching the game I attempted to login but the Play button never changed, instead I got a 210 manifest error.
I found a link that apparently fixes this issue but none of the solutions worked. I am not going to download the game again that is just stupid.
Anyone have any help they can offer ?

This is the link that did not solve my problem.

This is also happening to me, but sporadically. I load the launcher, and it gives me the manifest error, no play button, only a repair option, which I have used twice now.
Closing the launcher and reopening it five or six times finally allows the play button to appear with no manifest error, but it's incredibly annoying to have to sit there continually opening and closing the launcher half a dozen times until it works.

Ah ok I will try that.
I did try to bypass the launcher and just run the exe file directly after the 2.0.3 update but it doesnt work for me

I'm having a similar problem. Error 209, play button replaced with repair, if attempting to repair it crashes to error 209. Running the game directly through the exe does not work for me. It crashes on load.

I deleted my ProgamData folder and it is currently downloading 6 gigs. Hopefully after that it will work again.
I have never had an issue with my launcher until now...

I tried to do that, and also several other fixes, nothing worked for me >_<

this patch broke the game for me too. Showed a 209 error and tried all the ways https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22414/ stated, and now I'm stuck in repairing status, downloading 30GB of files for the repair. I'm bewildered and conflicted if I should wait for all 30GBs to download before giving up, or give up now

For me it's not downloading anything for the repair just verifying everything takes (2-3) minutes and then back to normal ERROR 209/210 ~~ <.<

I simply stopped closing Launcher.
I use Sleep, not power restart for my PC - so it works quite well

Funny that.

There's only 1 file in there of 9KB. Perhaps two if you managed to get the manifest in, but that's only another 11KB. So are you sure you just deleted C:\Program Files (x86)ZenimaxOnline\Launcher\ProgramData\ or did you delete more than that?

Apropos, 2.0.1 gave me Errors 209.
2.0.2 fixed everything.
2.0.3 gives me 209 and 210 errors.

I am starting the game without the launcher.
