    Are you trying to run from start screen or the desktop, you will need to start both copies in opened desktop mode to do it, not one from start and then other in desktop.
    There are old Warriors, and bold Warriors,
    but there are very few old bold Warriors. b:chuckle

    i dont have this problem but, try making sure that your shortcut or w/e you use to launch the game has administrative rights every time you launch it. right click the icon, go to properties, shortcut tab, click advanced button, and check the 'run as administrator' check box. this is all i know that may fix it, but it may not... xD

    I have windows 8 too. to bring up a second client to access to bank/shop, i right click the currently running pwi program on the task bar and hit the shortcut that pops up, brings up another client, skipping the launcher phase

    Second client must be brought up by using the "elementclient.exe" file, not the patcher/launcher.exe or desktop shortcut.

    Find elementclient.exe in C:\Program Files\PWI\element\elementclient.exe.

    Note, if you run a 64 bit system, it'll be Program Files x86.

    Also note, if you run arc, you'll need to click the Arc folder in program files and then go into PWI_en.
