Hi guys,

Yesterday I dled wc3 again from my CD's and first I had some problems, but finally found out how to solve them. So I played 2 games, everything was fine. Then I left the game and came back to it about 2 hours later, and up until then it says to me that I can't connect to battlenet because they cannot dl one file or something, so they tell me to make sure I have enough memory available, but I have over 700 GB still available... So I dunno what to do, I know this wasn't very clear but if you have any idea of what to do it would be nice. I already had this problem but I kinda knew why and right now I dont understand because it was working at first...

Right click the icon. Run as administrator.
And make sure you are running in full screen. Not windows mode.

Anyways, if that doesn't work, register a battlenet account.
Then register your CD key in battlenet.
Then try installing from there.
(Then try the right click icon => administrator)

If all else fails, go install the USA - English pack.
And then try right click -> administrator run

If you have errors during the update after reinstall due to wrong file path, go open your registry.
"windows key + "r"" -> type "regedit" -> and then from there
Go to the file in
Computer -> HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> SOFTWARE -> Blizzard Entertainment -> Warcraft III 
then find "InstallPath". Right click it and "Modify". Go find the "InstallPath" location. Like for me it is  C:\Program Files (x86)\Warcraft III\
If the file path is the same. Just right click modify it and just press enter again.
And then run the icon in administrator mode :P

wink
Thank me laterz <3

Yeah we got that part, running as administrator lets you login to battle.net
Plus I don't think you were able to update your wc3 because you couldn't login right?

Change its settings to "run this program as administrator"
  • Right-click the shortcut, click Properties.
  • Click Advanced. Select Run as Administrator
    Or 
  • Right-click the shortcut, click Properties.
  • Click Compatibility. Select Run as Administrator (it should be on the bottom)

    That way you won't have to right click every time (saves 3sec)
