How can I fix my launcher? (PC)

Every time I start the ESO launcher it tells me it cannot detect the game version and wants to run a repair, but that doesn't do anything, the same problem happens after the repair. I can run the game using the .exe file directly without problems, so I suspect the problem is with the launcher, not the game. Is there any way I can fix it? (Preferably without downloading everything again.)

    You could go to the Zenimax online folder. Delete the launcher folder within. Re-download the game launcher from the ESO website.

    Would that just download the launcher? I'd rather not have to download the whole game again.

    What is the exact error message coming up in the ESO Launcher?

    I can't remember, sorry. This was 2 weeks ago, I gave up on fixing the launcher and redownloaded the whole game because it was the simplest way.

    Just to confirm, after reinstalling ESO the launcher is now working correctly?
