Minion Wil not detect ESO.
2 Attachment(s)
Having a similar issue with Minion. It gets stuck locating ESO Addons. Has a window that says "Loading", and below the blue waving bar, "Detecting ESO-1 Installed Addons" and Detecting ESO-2 Installed Addons. Though I left it for quite some time, it just sits there. I uninstalled and reinstalled, then tried to add ESO, but it will not let me, since you have to select the path to the addon folder, and you can only select two folders deep. I then added the path via the Options tab, and still nothing. I cannot search addons because it will not allow me to add the game. Attached are the .xml and .log files.

Hi DeadAgain,
Thanks for posting your minion.xml and minion0.log. It looks like a bad path "C:\Documents and Settings " and "C:\Users\Peter\My Documents" was entered as an ESO addon directory. Both paths are incorrect and will cause Minion to crash. Please delete your minion.xml and restart Minion. If Minion can not find ESO installed automatically and is prompting you to manually add the game:
We do have a bug ticket in to fix it so Minion won't crash if a bad path is entered when manually adding games. For now if you accidentally enter a bad path you can just delete your minion.xml and start over. Where is Elder Scrolls Online the game installed on your system? Minion is usually pretty good at auto detecting it. It will even scan usb and network drives and find backups of the game and add them to Minion as a bug we are working on. |

The issue is that there is no triangle to expand further than My Documents. I cannot go down any further because Minion does not give the option. How can I point it to the correct file? See the attached screenshot.
Attachment 463 As to where it is installed, it is the default installation. C: drive, and the addon folder is in the usual place. Also, note in the screenshot that the "Update All" button appears to have some other text in it that "update all" is written over. |

If everything is in the default location for ESO it should find the game automatically. Wonder if there are permission issues? Try deleting your minion.xml again and then right click the Minion icon and choose run as admin. Does it find ESO then? Quote:

Also just FYI every time you start Minion it overwrites the minion0.log (we didn't want people to have huge Minion logs). The log you attached did not have any game detection stuff in it since I'm guessing you restarted Minion a few times to try and get it to work.
So if you do end up deleting your minion.xml again can you attach your new minion0.log after you run Minion? Then it should have the game detection stuff in the log and tell my why its not scanning for your ESO install. |
Thanks
I am an idiot. When I was opening the "Users" folder, it was starting at the bottom of the list, and I never scrolled up far enough to get to the "Documents" folder. Thanks, and sorry to bother you.
I hang my head in shame. |
