The company’s gaming platform is very stable and reliable and lives up to the expectations of even the most demanding gamers.Blizzard’splatform operates with a huge list of variables every day, and sometimes various technical issues may occur.
The easiest and simplest solution to repairBlizzard gamesis to use the platform’s dedicated repair tool. Corrupted and damaged game files can cause a wide variety of problems and errors.Blizzard’srepair tool quickly identifies the faulty files and repairs them in just a few minutes.
How to repair corrupted game files
There are also situations whenBlizzard’sscan and repair tool stops working, scans games in a loop or the option is completely grayed out.
After the latest patch downloaded my WoW game keeps attempting to scan & repair. It gets to 100% then says updating and proceeds to scan & repair again. I’ve gone directly into the folder and tried to run the WoW file but an error box appears.
If the Scan and Repair tool keeps on scanning games in a loop, follow these troubleshooting steps:
If this doesn’t help, you can also try reinstalling the game and move from there. Even though the aforementioned tool should replace corrupted files, we can’t say with complete certainty if that will resolve all problems. That’s why, if this fails, we suggest reinstalling the game and moving from there.
You can either use the Battle.net client to remove the game or uninstall it from the Control Panel like any other applications. Once done, reboot your PC, install the game again and hope for the best.
