The Elder Scrolls Online: ESO Launcher “Stuck on Running” (Workarounds)
Short answer
Suggested fix (unconfirmed): Locate the `eso64.exe` file in your game/client installation folder and launch the game by double-clicking it directly. Bypass the launcher unless an update is required.
The problem
Anyone have any ideas as to why when I click play from the ESO launcher it then goes to running but the game never loads and it just sits on running? I’ve updated Graphics card drivers , made sure my firewall is granting access to the game - I have directx 12 running AMD RYZEN 7 9800x3D with a 3080 and 32gb DDR5 RAM. This is the only game that I have issues running. Any help would be appreciated.
