[Solved] My old Editor doesn't open

[HerlySQR]

I played Wc3 in the 1.26 but recently I get the last version of Wc3, but now I can't open my editor of the 1.26 (Pls don't ask me why I wanna do that) the editor of the current versions works instead.

Haven't tried it myself but I guess you have to delete the Wc3 registries and possibly have to uninstall Reforged too.

@deepstrasz That as it assures me that it will not happen again, apart is 30 GB the Reforged.

Just carefully read those threads. Some have had your issue.

@deepstrasz I finally get the solution and I know you noticed, so thanks.
This is the solution I used

WorldEdit 1.32 changes a Registry entry that doesn't play nice with the older versions of the editor. I've documented it extensively and submitted it to Blizzard, but this is unlikely to get fixed by them since they don't want people doing this in the first place.

World Editor versions issue with Windows Registry

Full path of key located at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Blizzard Entertainment\WorldEdit

The key in question is called “Tool Windows” under “WorldEdit”. The value the 1.32 editor changes this to will cause any older version of WorldEdit to crash when this was not the case prior to the last patch.

=====

What I ultimately did was make a .Reg file for what the value of "Tool Windows" should be for 1.26 and apply that whenever I need to use the older editor again. Every time you run the 1.32 Editor again it changes the value back.

I can't post the actual file because of various reasons, but this is its contents more or less:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Blizzard Entertainment\WorldEdit]
"Tool Windows"=hex:00,00,00,00,01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
80,06,00,00,00,00,00,00,80,07,00,00,e3,03,00,00
