Hello, got myself in little problem here - can't update game throught launcher. When i open launcher im hit with "1", when i click "UPDATE" im hit with "2" (1 and 2 screenshots in attachments). And thats it. Rebot PC, reupload launcher, verification of game files is no help.
Pls help.

This keeps happening to me as well.

The launcher never actually downloads anything. The only reason i've been able to play the game is through the client zip download, but it seems that's no longer possible.

When I try launching the game via the wow shortcut, it's unplayable. As a new player, I was hoping to level up over the weekend. :/

Bump. The game is currently unplayable.

Usually a permissions issue. Run as admin.

Didn't work, unfortunately.

So far, I've tried:
1) Adding the Octowow launcher through my firewall.
2) Adding the Octowow launcher folder + wow folder as exceptions.
2.5) Flushing my DNS.
2.6) Checking my blocked files via windows defender (found nothing).
3) Trying with/without a VPN.
4) Running the launcher as administrator.
5) Tried EqUpdater after allowing the launcher through my firewall and adding the folder as an exception.
6) Tried disabling ALL of my firewalls and anti-virus settings on windows.
7) Tried downloading the fresh wow client from the website, deleting the old client, and replacing it with the fresh.
