Press play on loader and it does nothing.alot of good the repair function does if it uses the same button so it basically is useless too. I hit repair and it also does nothing.so glad I dont nor ever will pay a sub for such things.

    So did OP indicate that he has Webroot as his antivirus software?? And he doesn't mention crashing with a black screen.

    ZOS' reply doesn't seem to be very helpful if he didn't.

    However, that's a rage quit if ever I saw one.

    The launcher won’t load right. Then if it does I get random ping spikes and dc over and over then error 200 and can’t login. I’m close to uninstalling too.

    Lol no rage,had few days extra off cuz of a holiday and was expecting to mess around on eso but as my luck would have it it would work fine night before than not the next day when I'd have some time to play. Little frustrating but no rage,spent about an hr looking on Google and messing around with the launcher file to no avail so only real option is to uninstall and reinstall which even with high speed where I live takes a day or two to redownload which I'm sure I will again one of these days lol have gw2 running so just suck it up and play that for few days lol

    Then I wish you the best of luck with your reinstall, and hope that solves the issue.

    As a matter of interest, where either of ZOS' 'help articles' of the slightest use?

    What Anti-Virus Software is installed? Can you disable it and try again?

    Is the "eso64.exe" Launcher in this folder?

    I uninstalled the game and reinstalled. That completely fixed my issues. Tried repairing at first but that didn’t work. Everything’s fine now.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled and it worked for two days,just tried logging in and same thing is happening again. As much as I like this game I am not trying up my internet for another two days to install. Crazy stuff for 2019. All the buttons on the installer work except the play highlights for a second than does nothing. Very frustrating. All other games work fine and as I said it was working fine last couple days.

    This is getting quite old,now it's doing it again and repair option isn't showing up. Maybe have ur tech guys fix ur loader so ur paying customers can play ur game,just a thought. Lmao so I open the account and support tabs than game options and repair magically appears as an option? What a horrible launcher and by the looks of it on the net it's been a problem for yrs.

    What is the exact error coming up in the launcher now?

    Which file does the launcher lack permission to?
