Hello all,
Today I wanted to try some stuff in World Editor but when I pressed test map button a window popped.
Somehow it stop working. At first it said:
"Can't find the C:\Program Files(x86)\Warcraft III\Warcraft III.exe".
Open the Preferences tab and change it."
I went to Archives > Preferences but on those tabs I couldn't find something path-related. So I went to the folder and rename the "war3.exe" to "Warcraft III.exe".
Now another window pops (when I press test map)
"An error has ocurred executing the file C:\Program Files(x86)\Warcraft III\Warcraft III.exe"
... and the editor won't open Warcraft 3. After I clicked "OK" nothing happens. Just won't launch.
Anyone had this issue before?
Worth mentioning I had no issues before with the current patch version (1.30). The last thing I downloaded W3-related was the UTM v4.0. Was that the cause of the bug here?
Notes:
*I have the W3 in spanish so the 'message' may not be 100% accurate.
*I read another thread saying the screen went black when they test map but this isnt the case, this won't launch w3 at all.
Update:
Reinstaling the game does not fix the issue.
Solved. Scroll down to read how I did it.
