Not that I know. It started when I tried to test a map while on battery. I think there was a graphics driver update not long before. Dunno what it could be. The "fixes" I find don't work either, already reinstalled WC3 but now reinstalling bnet completely. 30GB for the SD only game, ridiculous lol.

Yeah. Weird. Tell me if it works after reinstall.

Then there must be something. So basically, it doesn't enter the game at all?
Try running both B.net app and the game via as administrator.

The game launches but it's stuck on the "lion gate", doesn't enter the game beyond that. If I reset the settings I just get a black screen but if I change the settings so the intro has been "seen" it goes back to the lion gate thing.

I've tried launching as admin, adding exceptions to firewall, making sure all executables use the right graphics card, ... dunno what else to do :(

Hmm. Try accessing it via the .exe. Also try running a dummy map via the editor.

Hmmm, if I try to run WC3 or WE directly, it just opens the bnet app and doesn't do anything. I can only open them through the bnet app. Running a map via the editor just gets me stuck at the lion gate thing too. :(

Also open up a thread on the official forums.
It definitely has something to do with some update or something recently done on the computer.
By the way, the game shows as the last version in B.net?

I wanted to reply on the thread I posted on the blizzard forums about this that it was fixed, but it keeps asking me to send a verification code over and over when I try to log in lol.
