This doesn’t work anymore. The link just leads to battle.net launcher and downloads the same file over and over again. The option to download through my user profile doesn’t work anymore either. (Windows) Spent an hour figuring this out BTW.
It’s been 4(FOUR) years! And you idiots still didn’t add the option to download/play game through your terrible launcher.
Fix the links at least then.
Hello
I think I have the same problem as you guys.
I have both reign of chaos and frozen throne, but I can’t download it.
I am directed to the reforged version which I have not.
I have the keys and been wrote to support several times.
They ask me to write here on the forum, because they can’t troubleshoot my problem.
I hope you can help me with that!
Kind Regards
Jean-Christophe
Ow. Hello, brother. Somehow I opened the support ticket and they told me to restart my computer and router. I think this might help. xD
What did they tell you? I tried a lot but nothing helped really. It’s up to them to restore the links or not to.
classic-warcraft-iii-official-installers-official-patches/21415 doesn’t work too, cause it doesn’t link blizzard account with keys to the game. Servers for 1.27 warcraft are unavailable so it’s an online version. Links to ver. 1.31 patches lead nowhere now. Everything is dead
upd. I saw a post that says we should use US forum instead of EU
upd2. On US forum I found a reply from Arcitct that says:
Open the Battle.net app
Click the Battle.net logo at the top left and select Log Out
Before logging in click the Cog Wheel icon (the gear) above your email address
Click “Continue without logging in”
On the Warcraft 3 page you should now see an Install button. Install the game fully.
After the game is installed log into the Battle.net app again and it should show Play.
IT WORKS!!!

denis18312’s workaround works.
Incredible, never thought I’d get bullied that way as a customer, having to go through such a hassle to install a game I’ve owned for 20 years…
I still dont know if Blizzard have gone mad on their sales policy, trying to get people pay again for installing a game they already own (hiding the install files behind the chekout page of the reforged version), or if their devs are so cheap nowadays that this is a bug…
Anyway, thanks denis you saved my day and I can play now.
Just absolutely incredibly unprofessional.
To think theses guys once were the best game designers in the world… down to cheap money fiends today.
Regards.

Thank you Denis! Greedy company will do anything to get us to pay again for this. Thankfully someone found out the last remaining way. Im sure blizzard will disallow this soon (accidently)
