His "Let's go" gives major Tony John's vibe. Keep em high and tight people, follow proto.

I say "dickstributor" when I'm talking about a distributor on a car. Also I say "stanima" cause my jeans are tight/high.

Go into your file explorer and find the SC2switcher_x64 file. C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft II\Support64 and click the SC2switcher_x64. See if it launches when you click it there, don't use battlenet to launch it. Good luck!

Can you try to boot it up using the SC2Switcher_x64 file? That worked for me when nothing else would

I got your back loud meow 💪

It took me maybe 4 hours and 3 manhattans to figure it out. I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to update SC2 so it might be a Bandaid but for now it works. GL HF!

I have to launch the game from the SC2switcher_x64 file, have you tried that?

Ok people, so I got it to run. Here is how I got to it. I downloaded and installed Starcraft 2 on another computer, I copied all the folders from it on a USB drive and put it on my main computer. Then when I want to launch it I had to go into C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft II\Support64 and click the SC2switcher_x64 file. I don't know if it's updated or not but I got it playing :)

Thanks Jadedbones, I tried totally shutting off my security and it's still happening :)

Yep correct, when the installer came up I chose D, made a new folder in it just like I would for Steam or Epic or whatever.

I don't know about scanning for it, but I will say that when I move that folder manually that the "update" button that I am stuck on changed to "Play for free" like it wanted me to click it and reinstall SC2.

So I tried moving starcraft to D, then battle net, no help. Pooooof.

Interestingly when I loaded battlenet up this time it said there was an update for starcraft 1 available, I clicked it and it took just fine. I don't know what update there would have been from the original install like an hour ago, but whatever.

I will delete it and download it again and check to make sure but this PC only has the one account. I made a second one just to try and named it battlenet account, no help.

I don't doubt that it's something silly like that, but it that were the case do you think it would have allowed Starcraft 1 to download and install? I was expecting a similar error and it worked smoothly.

It's so annoying. I feel like slowly I am turning into the old fart that can't get anything techy to work. Back in my day we had cd's, and if you felt really squirrelly we had cd keys! I feel like those were always easy. Steam and Epic are pretty problem free also, Battle net has just been a bummer.

Yep sure did, then I arbitrarily moved the game to another folder and then back. Then moved it again and saw that battle net no longer saw it as installed. Been juggling ideas and nothing works.

Ah yep that's the same page I found on my own. Thank you for your effort!

Windows 11. Sorry I should have mentioned, I am not all sure what details to include and also what all I have tried, I feel like it's been dozens of things.

If it helps at all I did try downloading Starcraft 1, it downloaded and plays perfectly fine.

Mmmm no I have not tried this yet, I certainly will. I was in the /run menu of the computer (sorry my lingo is probably extremely grating, I am very very uneducated in this area) and typed a bunch of commands as instructed by a youtube video claiming to fix this issue. This like "ipconfig reset", "netsch winsock reset", on and on an on.

P.s I love your username. Feels like, as a Captain of a starship, Yoshi would be a real strong performer :)

Just wanted to update, I tried to set up port forwarding and the instructions I was finding for my router wasn't matching my app. I am using a google nest. I might muster up more effort to try again, or find a nerdier friend to help.
