Once that's completed, go onto Internet Explorer and go to the Elder Scrolls Online website to download or re-download the PC Client. From this point on, everything will run smoothly (fingers crossed). It will then install the game files, launcher and the latest patch. Welcome to the Magicka Nightblade Build PvE “Azure” for Elder Scrolls Online. Make sure to bookmark the link as I will keep updating the build for each new Update of ESO. This Magicka Nightblade Build is made for Trials, Dungeons and Maelstrom. Once that's completed, go onto Internet Explorer and go to the Elder Scrolls Online website to download or re-download the PC Client. From this point on, everything will run smoothly (fingers crossed). It will then install the game files, launcher and the latest patch. Just run the patch that would convert the beta files into the actual game files. Sounds simple enough, but did that happen? HELL NO IT DIDN'T! I was in screen-freeze purgatory for hours and I mean hours. I stopped it, then tried reloading--nothing. I ended up so aggravated I deleted all the ESO files on my PC. Went to their website to download.
First off, sorry for posting a help topic, but the beta forums are down, and I'm trying to get some quick help before the weekend.
I'm trying to update my ESO for the weekend, however, every time I try to update it rechecks my downloaded progress, realizes that the patch is downloaded, tries to install it but gets to 9% and just gets stuck. I've restarted it multiple times, restarted my computer, turned off my firewall and anti virus.. nothing seems to work. Preferably I would like to avoid having to reinstall the client as a whole, but if I must, I must. I'm more frustrated than an Elephant trying to enter a mouse hole at this point.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
EDIT: I suppose I should have reiterated how stuck it is.. it's been at 5352.09 MB remaining for the last 3 hours, and the install speed is declining by about 1kb/s per 10 seconds, it really... makes no sense to me at all.
Eso Next Update 2018
EDIT 2: Well.. I sent in a ticket, so hopefully they'll respond with some help before mid day tomorrow (in case I have to completely reinstall).. though ill still take any help you guys can give :)
FINAL EDIT: Somehow I managed to fix it, not entirely sure what I did, but it went as follows: After getting stuck at 9% > turned off automatic updates > closed the launcher > re-opened and used the repair tool > repair tool got stuck at 49% > hit cancel > hit update and it froze > force closed launcher > re-opened > turned on automatic updates > and it managed to patch fully without anymore issues
Eso New Update 2018
If anyone else gets this issue, I have no clue if this will fix it for some miraculous reason or if it was just by pure chance that it fixed mine.. but hopefully it gives some peace of mind to anyone else that may encounter this problem.
