@For newbie: Don't forget crack before launching the game (otherwise you will get the "no license" error). By doing one of the following:
Method 1: before installing the game, check the following box:
Method 2: or after installing the game, open the iso file, copy everything in the "RUNE" folder, then paste them to where you installed the game, enjoy ;) (see tutorial image here if you still dont know: https://igg-games.com/how-885614657-to-install-game-and-update.html)
Thanks for your works, now I have one problem, xbox controller isn't fully functional, can't work wirelessly. I looked it up, seems to be a FAQ，is there a way to fix that？
I found a way in which the pad works without a problem, namely I connected it to the computer with a cable, the bluetooth controller does not work, but after connecting with a cable it already does
You didn't apply the crack. When you install the game there's an option in the installer to automatically apply the crack. If you didn't do that then go into the ISO, open the PLAZA folder and copy the folder inside onto the install directory

when you download it you need to put the crack in the installation folder. If you dont add the crack to the game it indeed checks your steam if you have bought the game
ok first you download something from utorrent. thats the installation. then you open a disc image which should look like a new drive installed in your pc. on that image there should be a setup and a folder which contains the crack. The files that are in this folder need to be put where you install the game (so where you select the game to be downloaded in the Setup). If u did it correctly it should ask for some files to be replaced. you need to replace all those files and it should work. I am currently still downloading so if you cant figure it out i should be able to help you later on!
Torrenting is the easiest way to avoid the annoying ads from the split downloading(megaup) and the fastest way to download a new game upload. I'd only use the split file download links if it has been several weeks since the initial upload date since that's when torrents start slowing down due to not enough people seeding.
Took me about an hour in total to download this 46gb torrent vs constantly wasting time over waiting on the split file links and then the slow limited download speeds that takes at least 10mins for one split 5gb file from those sites.
It would take close to 2 hours to download all those files split separately versus just cutting down the time in half by torrenting.
all the games files are spread out amongst multiple parts so there isn't just one part with the crack files in them you'll have to reextract the entire game to get the crack files back
Would you mind pinning this comment at the top along with the one about the update? Took me forever to find this again after having to redownload and install the game to get the update working. Thank you!
Tried editing the steam_emu.ini but it won't save the changes I made. Error says that I don't have permission to edit files. Already tried the solutions posted online by clicking properties-security and uncheck Run as administrator but error still persists.
Another more complex process would be to right click the folder of the game and revoke ownership of the current owner and put them on yourself. But doing what "Cockgobbler" said works very well, as well as moving the .ini outside of that folder, editing it and then placing it back in.
lmao, you guys uploaded wrong game, this gotta be a joke or a mistake, but thank you guys for your hard work for this game with these updates issue people are having!
I just don't get it, I have been updating just fine. Either people can follow simple instructions or diferent sistems create diferent problems. Anyway thanks for the update and thanks for your efforts Igg team!
idk what is your definition of loud minority is but if tons of people complaining about update not working in comment section is loud minority to you then you have reta** logic, its not "loud minority" when other games also have updates and only 1 or 2 people complaining yet elden ring have tons of complain about the update with mostly the same cases ( like the izma2 need decompress 1 form the comments below which the mod didnt even answer )
i never had issues with updates before but i have issue with this "bat" update when the previous game update use .exe, the base game works fine and thankfully they uploaded the v1.03 full game download but the updates for this game is disastrous
To me a 'loud minority' is about 10-12 people who don't want to wait 5 minutes for their game to update, so they keep closing it before it's finished and not being able to play.
ive waited 30 mins++ and it still stay the same ( maybe diffrent specs cause faster update time ? ) and most update i have done only took about 2 or 3 min so i would think that it will took the same amount of time for this update too
And they didnt say anything to help with the installation process in readme it just just say copy this to here and run it, no mention of how we should wait till certain condition are met and then we can close it, so ofcourse many people will have problem updating
and a little bit of correction about 10-12 people every week yeah sure buddy i guess we are loud minority with your logic
Check through the comments for a list of the updates. You might be missing an intermittent update. Admittantly i tried twice boefore realizing that was the issue.
That would mean that you installed it incorrectly. Make sure you read the "How To Install" when you try to install an update, make sure you are dropping the contents into the Elden Ring folder and NOT the Game folder (that is a common mistake) and make sure you also run the patch as administrator. Hope that helps.
this is my first time downloading Elden Ring v1.03.2 & ALL DLC. you guys saying update, update. well this is fresh game for me. i downloaded all 11 parts and extract it. go in the folder and launch the game. it went in for a sec (white screen with new cursor) and then it close down.
hi! i tried to install the update only batch file, but it says that update has failed due to some errors and a text document appeared containing: This is a list of the files that got some kind of Error during the xdelta patching process -
-- ERROR -- Patching of the file "Game\Data0.bdt" has Failed !! -- ERROR -- Patching of the file "Game\Data2.bdt" has Failed !!

(Because the folder with the name "Game" is the folder the game created, so it's not where the game was installed, it's hard to explain, see the illustration below)

I think I know where the big issue is coming from. When I patched the game the first time, I had issues. It wasn't until I ran the patch itself as Administrator that the patch properly worked for me. Maybe include "run as administrator" in your "How To Install" document.

sorry to bother you but when I run the bat file I get around the end '' hpatchz run with decompress plugin: ''izma2'' (need decompress 1) '' and then it stops when I run it again I get the choice to apply the patch or not but it tells me that there was a file error to I choose not to apply cuz If I apply the game won't run if with new crack can you tell me how to solve this?
We have updated to v1.02.2 (this is "update-only", ~45mb, you don't need to download the whole game again). In case you don't know where to download it, it's here, see picture:
You are doing it wrong. Copy files from "update" to "ELDEN RING" and run the bat file, then wait. At the end it will ask you to press Y or N. You have to press N and then copy the crack files.
i did this i copy the files from update in elder ring folder , not game folder , after enter bat and press n , and say update succesful , after i copy the steam dll in game folder , enter game and white screen , now i dowload gain the game and hope i this time work, miss codex updates was the best
Nah man. Run the .bat again. It will ask you about corrupted files. Pres "Y" and it will restore all files to normal. Then try again; You don't have to download the whole game again.
I copy the files from update folder in elder ring folder, run .bat file but it say error so I press Y. Then I run .bat file to try again and still error, but this 2nd time I press N, then I copy the files from crack folder to elder ring folder, enter game and it's white screen. I try run .bat file and press N no matter what error it say but still not work. Now I run .bat file again and press Y to restore file like u said, but still white screen, what should I do?
This is what error log say: "This is a list of the files that got some kind of Error during the xdelta patching process -
-- ERROR -- Patching of the file "Game\Data0.bdt" has Failed !!"
Is there going to be and update here for the newest 1.02.3 controller fix? because I can't play the game right now because my controller wont register.
I tried this, and the controller can't do anything in the menu, it even bugs out and cant go back to main screen after going into settings. It shows as if the controller is pluged in (shows like the buttons on the bottom of the settings) but won't do anything
Tested with 8bitdo's sn30pro, sn30pro+, xbox one s, and switch pro controllers(betterjoyforcemu using hidguardian drivers) on Windows 11. Haven't had any controller issues with Elden Ring, however I seen people say using HidHide to hide certain devices help with the controller issue that you are having.
To update the games you need to copy and past on the game folder the entire the update folder "ELDEN.RING.Update.Only.v1.02.2\Update\Game" except the file "Data0.bhd" because this file blocks the games in white screen and it will be good, in any case I its a walk
Ok merci de l'info il me manquait cette étape de décompression. Cependant meme en suivant à la lettre ton indication j'en arrive au meme résultat d'écran blanc. Cette fois j'ai comparé les fichiers a ta capture d'écran et nous avons la meme chose.
je me suis tromper en faite ya pas besoin de lancer l'installeur de mise a jours, faut copier coller manuellement tout le Update sauf le fichier Data0.bhd parceque ce fichier est corrompue et il provoque le blocage sur l'écran blanc
Saving file : Launch : Windows + R (Execute) Type : %appdata% Go to : "Roaming" folder Search : "EldenRing" Folder Make a copy on your desktop. Unistall your game and replace "EldenRing" folder after reinstall with the same process.
do i need to uninstall the game in order to do these steps again? or do i just do them steps again with the white screen issue? because i have tried everything as you told and nothing seem to work sadly :/
I think the step 4 is nnot nécessairy :/, please retry the 1 to 3 and see its working or not ans tell me, ans dont forgot thé file "Data0.bhd" causing the white screen
can you please upload the old "Data0.bhd" not the one with the update? maybe because i had the old one updated and put it in the game file which cause the white screen issue :/
I repeat the maneuver, and its operation it is just necessary to copy and paste manually the folder of update (Game) in the folder of the games, with the exception of the file "Data0.bhd" because it causes the blocking in white screen.
j'ai recommencer la manœuvre, et sa marche il faut juste copier et coller manuellement le dossier de mise a jours (Game) dans le dossier du jeux, a l'exception du fichier "Data0.bhd" car il provoque le blocage en ecran blanc.
A NEW UPDATE Patch Notes Version 1.02.3 Patch 1.02.3 for PC available now: Fixed a problem in which controllers connected to the PC were not recognized under certain circumstances.
you probably did something wrong. If you strictly follow the steps, it should work. It worked for me (I downloaded the first version, then installed the update only).
i tried every steps, still not working, should i uninstall the game and redo it? if so i can't redownload the game since some of the links are down. which is the best part links to download the game without waiting and speed limitation? i use Google drive and mega.nz but these are down

So, the Updates are definitely working. I had to uninstal my game casue of the White Screen Error. But after clean instalation, only pasting Update folder content to Elden Ring folder and start all the ExEs, starting from update -> patch -> Hpatchz -> elden_ring_update_v1.02.2. DO NOT copy crack from it. Go to another update v1.02.3. Do it again, just like previous one. Than copy Crack folder content to GAME folder, overwrite the files. Updates 1.03.0 same but without crack. Update 1.03.1 same but with Crack folder files paste to the GAME folder. In steam emu ini file you can change language as you pleasd. Hope I helped you. Take care
You had to do something wrong in the process. Like pasting files in to the wrong folder can cause it. I know it from my mistakes -.- so I had to do a reinstalation of whole game, and than i figure it out like I mention earlier. Just uninstal the game. Delete all game files if any left. Do a clean new instalation. After this, just open ELDEN RING folder and you should see only 3 things. "GAME" folder, unins000 DAT file, unins000 EXE. Paste all the files from UPDATE folder right there. Fallow instructions ^
data0.bdt has failed !! Error! rest works flawlessly still results in a whitescreen trying to start it doing all the steps on a clean install for the 2nd time now. win 10 no background stuff running and always running as admin the processes ... im at a loss and quite flabbergasted , IGG should just do a current patch full download with the newest version so many people are haveing issues and even legit ones since newest patch lmao
Always start all EXE files in order like in instruction, after pasting files from each Update to the Elden Ring folder, not "game" folder in Elden Ring folder. So update 1.02.2 all exe in order. After patch, they will dissaper so you can go to patch 1.02.3 again start all exe in order, and again and again.
Thanks for the assistance but as other have stated the problem is the data0 file being unable to patch thus causing a white screen. If you guys manage to get a fix please comment on it
The white screen error actually appears when you misplace the installation file. I tried putting it in the wrong place, and I got the same white screen error as you said...
Do you still have the old installation file? please follow step by step:
Install ELDEN RING-PLAZA
Install UPDATE v1.02.2 (follow instructions as pinned comment) (also, you probably don't need to copy/paste files in "crack" folder, it doesn't matter, just saves time)
Install UPDATE v1.02.3, as far as I can remember, this update seems to be too small, so no need to install, you just need to copy all the files in the "update" folder and overwrite them in the folder. game installed item
Install UPDATE v1.03: Do the same with v1.02.2
Install UPDATE v1.03.1: Do the same with v1.02.2. Finally copy all the files in the "crack" folder and paste them into the game folder. Enjoy ;)
lo comprobé y si que va. Yo instale todas las versiones por orden y funcionaron. la versión 1.02.2 la instalé donde ponía la imagen del moderador, en cambio la versión 1.02.3 la instalé dentro de la carpeta de game que coincide con archivos y los reemplace. tanto para la versión 1.03.0 como la versión 1.03.01 la instalé de la misma forma que la versión 1.02.2.
Same here data0bd failed but rest okay then probably whitescreen i´ll see after it is done , followed all the methods , uninstalled already once , not sure if i´ve the patience to do it again when i´m already done but want to test out new stuff and how the performance has changed.
The update need a lot of space on your HDD/SSD for decompress and create the new files ( that are the same size of the complete game) , you need to have minimum of 50/60 gb free on your disk to avoid error, it's possibly your problem .
The erro i got only in 1.03.1 update. The game ran fine before this update. i did it in the disk having more than 100gb space still it threw the same data0 error. Now i can't even play my game since my save file had been updated somehow and the game need the latest version when i reinstalled saying "Game version and save version are different". Anyone plz provide solution. Any help will be much appreciated!!!!
I made an account just to reply to you. Thank you so much, I have been trying to update to 1.03 for 2 days without luck, when I read your comment I realized what the issue was. Cheers <3
yo instale por orden todas las actualizaciones y la carpeta comprimida patch.exe y la update.exe le di a extraer aqui, con el winrar, después ejecuté el archivo bat. La carpeta con los archivos de steam_emu, etc en cambio los reemplace dentro de la carpeta game donde ya existen eso archivos, espero que te ayude. Sólo para la actualización 1.02.3 la instale de otra forma que fue sustuir los archivos en la carpera game del juego que coincide con el mismo nombre.
i need help, my game is 102.2 and i'm trying to update it to 1.02.3, after i applied the update, it only shows the current version 1.02.2 and not the update. any help?
Everyone here is saying that if you put in UPDATE v1.03.1, you will get "all patches from v1.02.2 to v1.03.1". This is a misconception.
In fact, that is what I thought. But it is not true.
If it is a normal game, you don't need to think about it because it will update automatically even if it is a distant version.
However, this is a "manual update patch". You have to go through the steps.
You have to start updating from the version you are playing.
Since the version of my game was V1.02 You need to start the Bat program with UPDATEv1.02.2, UPDATE v1.02.3, UPDATE v1.03, UPDATE v1.03.1 and place them as they are pinned.
This is where it starts to get important. Do not just extract update.exe in the update folder and overwrite it. If you have done the above you will get a white screen.
Why does this happen? 【This is because the bdt file containing the existing game data does not contain the PATCH data.】
The one in update.exe is called "bhd file", which is another file. It will not start even if it is that new.
The bat program is for adding PATCH data to the existing data (bdt file).
Therefore, it is located in the update folder .ELDEN_RING_Update_v1.xxx. XX.bat in the update folder.
If the question comes up, press Y, overwrite game with the data in the folder FilesNew, expand update.exe, overwrite game with that data, and it will work.
I succeeded in activating it this way.
I think this description is misleading because of the way it is written.
UPDATE v1.02.2, not
【Update from v1.02.2 to v1.02.3】
We think it needs to be stated as follows.
I am using a translation site, so some of the sentences may be incorrect.
This is a list of the files that got some kind of Error during the xdelta patching process -
-- ERROR -- Patching of the file "Game\Data2.bdt" has Failed !! -- ERROR -- Patching of the file "Game\Data3.bdt" has Failed !! -- ERROR -- Patching of the file "Game\sd\sd.bdt" has Failed !!
how to fix this ? i tried running as admin and not running it as admin for .bat first 2 patched fine, the rest 3 didn't (no anti virus installed)
i need help, my game is 102.2 and i'm trying to update it to 1.02.3, after i applied the update, it only shows the current version 1.02.2 and not the update. any help?
Yea its hard to understand i didnt got it when i updated with the first 2 updates. But all u have to do is put it in the Install folder and use the exe there.
C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Roaming\EldenRing my save was here and worked, ofc your save wont work on older versions of the game once you update, also run patch bat file in administrator.
1799420=ELDEN RING Bonus Gesture[DLC] ### ### Automatically unlock all DLCs ### DLCUnlockall=0 ### ### Identifiers for DLCs ### #ID=Name 1799420=ELDEN RING Bonus Gesture ###there's a field called language = english, change the last phrase to the language you want, for example im playing on spanish so
language = spanish
I don't know why they didn't put "portuguese", but that's it.
copy the game folder files, then copy the new crack and overwrite old files.
FIrst if you have tried the coping the Xbox controller files X360ce.ini and xinput1_4.dll method.
You have to remove those files from the game folder.
Then follow the YT link below. It works on BT and on cable. No problem.

and then it stops when I run it again I get the choice to apply the patch or not but it tells me that there was a file error to I choose not to apply cuz If I apply the game won't run if with new crack
can you tell me how to solve this?
After it, disable all anti virus if you have (or give exception in the elden ring file), launch .bat with admin right,
After it, copy all file in "crack" folder and put in in "elden right" folder.
It's done.
Copy files from "update" to "ELDEN RING" and run the bat file, then wait. At the end it will ask you to press Y or N. You have to press N and then copy the crack files.
Then try again; You don't have to download the whole game again.
This is what error log say:
"This is a list of the files that got some kind of Error during the xdelta patching process -
-- ERROR -- Patching of the file "Game\Data0.bdt" has Failed !!"
but startup took a little longer then usual.
I tried reinstalling the game but the update as instructed but it doesn't seem to work :))
you can use mouse or controller to click get through menu and after that you can plug your keyboard back in
This video and then unchecking the administrator rights on eldenring.exe may possibly solve the problem.
except the file "Data0.bhd" because this file blocks the games in white screen and it will be good, in any case I its a walk
Cependant meme en suivant à la lettre ton indication j'en arrive au meme résultat d'écran blanc. Cette fois j'ai comparé les fichiers a ta capture d'écran et nous avons la meme chose.
Mais bravo à toi pour la soluce
Launch : Windows + R (Execute)
Type : %appdata%
Go to : "Roaming" folder

Do not just extract update.exe in the update folder and overwrite it.
If you have done the above you will get a white screen.
Why does this happen?
【This is because the bdt file containing the existing game data does not contain the PATCH data.】
The one in update.exe is called "bhd file", which is another file. It will not start even if it is that new.
The bat program is for adding PATCH data to the existing data (bdt file).
Therefore, it is located in the update folder .ELDEN_RING_Update_v1.xxx. XX.bat in the update folder.
If the question comes up, press Y, overwrite game with the data in the folder FilesNew, expand update.exe, overwrite game with that data, and it will work.
I succeeded in activating it this way.
I think this description is misleading because of the way it is written.
UPDATE v1.02.2, not
【Update from v1.02.2 to v1.02.3】
We think it needs to be stated as follows.
I am using a translation site, so some of the sentences may be incorrect.
I hope this will be helpful.
-- ERROR -- Patching of the file "Game\Data2.bdt" has Failed !!
-- ERROR -- Patching of the file "Game\Data3.bdt" has Failed !!
-- ERROR -- Patching of the file "Game\sd\sd.bdt" has Failed !!
how to fix this ? i tried running as admin and not running it as admin for .bat
first 2 patched fine, the rest 3 didn't (no anti virus installed)
Then I reinstalled the game on SSD with low space, thus Data 2,Data 3,Sd ERROR.
I will try again with more space
Mod: YES
IGG: Say no more
How many badges you want? :D
But all u have to do is put it in the Install folder and use the exe there.
