Battle.net App Not Working on Windows 7 after patch 13434

Same here, also Windows 7 (64-bit) user.

Found temporary solution on US forums.

  1. Find other PC with working Battle Net (or some Friend).
  2. Locate the source folder where Battle Net Launcher is starting from.
    There should be folder(s) from recent updates. “Battle.net.13434” is the one which DO NOT work for me (newest).
  3. Delete “Battle.net.13434” folder.
  4. Copy “Battle.net.#####” folder from the other PC (where Battle Net works) into your PC (where Battle Net does not want to work).
    DO NOT use “Battle.net.13434” (probably will not work anyway). Use some older (lower number) version of the folder (I used Battle.net.13401 - this one worked for me).
  5. Launch Battle Net again. It should (?) work. It might be slow, you might need to find your installed games again (or Battle Net will find them automatically).

I have not checked yet, what will happen when I restart Battle Net client.
Maybe it will be needed to copy older folder (or delete newest 13434) again?
