Posted August 3, 2020 Hello! It would seem that today, trying to launch the game simply doesn't do anything but is open as a background process in Task manager. (See attached image.) What I've tried to fix it with no avail: Restarting PC and trying again Having the WoW.exe open for 30+ minutes in the background Downloading the "8.2 updater" and replacing the WoW.exe Downloading the "Firestorm launcher" and trying to verify and repair the game files Downloaded and updated the Microsoft Visual C++ 2019 files that come with the launcher and restarting PC after it Temporarily moving all addons out of the WoW folder Deleting cache folder Temporarily moving WTF folder out of the WoW folder (and then selecting English (EU)) with no changes I can't seem to understand what I'm doing wrong and if there's a simple fix around this, I'd love to know how to please. Thank you! 2 people like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 3, 2020 We are a lot with the same problem we are trying different things but nothing is working. Our game is still in the background exactly like your. At least firestorm should give us a sign of something i hope they are working on it.... 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 3, 2020 Guys i found a fix its working. So what are you supposed to do is: Go in task manager where you see the wow.exe process.Then end the task and re-open the game until it get to 197-198 ram memory. From there it should start download all other assets by itself.My game finally opened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 3, 2020 damn why we cant just download patch and add it in gamefile, it would be easier for everyone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
