| 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...Added (30-Sep-2015, 4:30 AM) --------------------------------------------- for your information my comp is this one: Asus ROG G551JW-DM221H Added (30-Sep-2015, 4:30 AM) --------------------------------------------- (and I'm under windows 8)

| 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
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?

| Well actually I did update it and then played 2 games, but after it stopped working when I launched wc3 again. I really don't understand, I already had problems with battlenet but usually I knew where was the problem whereas right now I dont :3 I'll try anyway, I finish school in 5 mins so Im home in 45

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)
