Since we have had more then a few of these I wanted to make one post about it with the Blue link to it from the WoW boards.




Thank you for the link Thermalnoise

For those not getting the link here is the original blue post from Blizz tech support:

If you are receiving the error, "Unable to Validate Game Version" after patching, please try logging in and out with another user/profile for Windows and/or try using the "Run as..." method by following these steps:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q u o t e:

For those who making a new windows account does NOT work, try this:

Right click on your WoW icon.
Select "Run As..."
Mark the bubble "The following user:"
Select your normal login, if you dont HAVE one that you normally login with, it may appear as something like "Compaq_Owner" etc.
Type in a password if applicable.
Click Ok.

This worked for me, even while logged in from my main account. Hope that helps.
