Greetings all!
Since Legion Remix release, i have been getting a nice 4 GB update daily. DAILY. I update the game, as it would finish the update, suddenly i have an error. Nice. It keeps doing this, i don’t have Midnight Alpha access so i know it’s not that. I didn’t move my files ever, i didn’t tamper with them, no anti-virus is blocking battlenet. I assume it’s a bug at this point. I contacted the support with no reply back. I’m writing this mainly to see if anyone else has this? Or knows what can i do?
Note: If i pause the download, i can play completely fine. However, now because of this bugged 4GB of a mess, i won’t know if the game actually has an update or not, since it will try force this “update” to go through before the actual current one.
Thank you for the reply! I tried resetting Battlenet, fresh download all that. Located my files. Sadly it still seems broken:/ I deleted the cache as well, i feel pretty lost and idk how much longer can i play if the launcher keeps pushing this “update” instead of actual ones. I will have access to good internet at the very end of october only, so until then i can’t delete the game and redownload it since where i am currently, it barely goes above 1mbps lol:')
Also note: Scan and Repair DOES NOT work. It will get to 80%, then suddenly restart (??) and then it will proceed to keep doing this without ever finishing scanning. It gets itself in a loop.
For now how i play: I let the download get around 20 mb down, around there the game will tell me it’s playable. I pause this fake update, then log in and play.
I did open the link, i don’t understand this passive aggresive tone, it is uncalled for honestly. I am trying to fix my game, i did everything that was said in your guide. My battlened is fresh, i went in the cache and deleted the files that were said in the data cache too. Your guide is from 2022 as i see, maybe since then they changed a few files’s locations, i have no idea, or they simply messed files up when they released Legion Remix since it did introduce a bunch of bugs. I moved WoW’s folder as well to a different directory. I originally asked for help from WoW’s community because i need help, not to waste anyone’s time, i am saying that i feel lost with this issue because nothing seems working. I did also a check on my drive, which is in perfect condition so that can be ruled out as well.
literally doing full/true-clean reinstall of Battle-net will fix scan-loop, that is literally why I made that guide, so tell me, you wouldn’t be angry if someone is lying ?
Today I did myself full cache delete on WoW+Battle.net, guide is fully up to date
delete OneDrive, or any synchronization software with your appdata
turn off auto update in battle-net app settings
turn off sleep/hibernate in windows => restart pc
you can try deleting everything inside World of Warcraft\_retail_, except Interface + WTF folders => then Scan & repair
