Cannot start process

[tails the kitsune]

I purchased and installed the game (normal edition), and when clicking Play, there's a dialog saying it's preparing to install the game, but then when it reaches 100%, it just exits. In the game folder there's an error file, but all it says is what's written in the subject...
Can someone help me, please? Thank you.

same issue.. downloaded the game again.. same error
current JRE is installed, I also disabled the firewall since the application closed right after the windows firewall asked if java is allowed to access public networks

starting ..\SteamApps\common\Zenimax Online\The Elder Scrolls Online\game\client\eso64.exe seems to work..

EDIT: no, login failes... invalid client

EDIT: next idea, copy the Launcher folder from: C:\Users\**USER**\AppData\Local\Temp\I1487189051\InstallerData\Disk1\InstData\Resource1\$IA_PROJECT_DIR$\src_path\Launcher into the Zenimax Online folder and try launching from steam again

I had a similar issue with the installer not installing the already downloaded game through Steam, and did what this person here suggests and it solved my issue. Why and how? I don¿t know. Hope this helps.

both mixed fixed the problem and putting all the exe and setup files and java which is having trouble going through the firewall if needed i can put the folder location here lmk it was the java mostly the top link fixes that and i just did a fresh driver start for my video card i recomend that to all

from another thread, looks like this is the most effective fix for this kind of problem now

1. Go to C:\Users\<UseeName>\AppData\Local\Temp
2. Search "Resource1.zip" in that folder
3. Open the zip file (any one of them if several come up)
4. Go to $IA_PROJECT_DIR$\src_path
5. Extract the whole "Launcher" folder to (this is important):
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Zenimax Online

It's important you extract "Launcher" to that particular folder and not to the Zenimax Online folder in your Program files. That's what I did at first and it did not work. It HAS to go in the Steam folder.

6. Restart Steam
7. Try to run the game

Hopefully this works at least for some of you.

or you can try reinstall Nvidia driver, like this guy said here that its nvidia driveir problem with the java installer

Did you make account with ESO at ESO website. The game requires an account with ESO
