Project Lore

This morning while trying to login (fruitlessly, of course), I ran into a small error that seems to be pretty common. The WoW Launcher would download Patch 3.2, but would then give an error, "Failure to Apply Patch," or "Unable to Apply Patch." After trying the repair utility, a quick search reveals the steps to fix the problem:

• Go to the folder where WoW is installed. I find the easiest way to get there is simply right clicking the shortcut I use to launch WoW and choosing "Open File Location"
• Right Click on Launcher.exe
• Choose Run as Administrator
• If a UAC window pops up, choose continue
• Let the patching commence

I know this issue caused me some frustration during the time we are all waiting for the latest version of WoW to become active, so I hope this helps you out! Anyone else have any issues or solutions for the newest patch?
