    Hello,

    Anybody knows how do I install the manual patch?

    1. Open up your launcher, and go through the various popups.

    2. When it asks if you want to use Auto, click Cancel instead.

    3. Then, in the upper left of the launcher, you'll see Manual as a button.

    4. Click it, and it'll open a file browser.

    5. Go to the location where you downloaded the patch, and click on it.

    6. Then select Open, sit back, and let it go!

    Very easy and simple download the manual patch first and save it, after the download completes simply double-click on the manual patch it will start auto-installing itself.
    Enjoy !

    Note:At your own risk, you may have to disable your antivirus, firewall, and other security software temporarily while you download, install, update, login to, and play the game. Sometimes the security software will block it or throttle it, no matter what you try or even if you try to add exceptions for the game files in your security software.

    Downloading the patch took me only roughly 18minutes but updating the client itself seems to take much longer..

    0. Turn off your antivirus.

    1. Open up your launcher, and go through the various popups.

    2. When it asks if you want to use Auto, click Cancel instead.

    3. Then, in the upper left of the launcher, you'll see Manual as a button.

    In red. People seem to be having issues with this patch giving (incorrect) antivirus errors.

    I'm gonna move this to tech support for now. You'll likely get your answers a little bit faster, at least that has been the case during this expansion since many are having these issues. b:thanks

    With regards to the manual patch, I've patched for 3 hours only to see "File List corrupted" come up, and no progress was saved. This has happened twice. It's been two days; it keeps coming up, neither of my antiviruses say anything about malware.

    Can someone upload a patched set of game files from their PWI folder if that's allowed?

    EDIT: Never mind...it just...worked b:surrender
