    Try deleting it and re-installing it to your pc.

    <_< Before you go through crazy measures like with the above post, try using the Verify button on the Launcher. It's possible you're getting the "Enter Game Fail" at the very bottom of the launcher, it doesn't come up as a pop up and can be sort of hard to notice at first. Just verify, and see if that works.

    If not, try updating your Microsoft C++ using the link below.
    3. After installing, the client will not open PWI; says "Enter game failed"
    Thanks to skydiver for giving a possible fix, installing Visual C++ will apparently fix it, the link can be found here
