Games update every time the launcher is started?

All my Blizzard games (7) update every time I boot up the Battle.Net launcher It doesn’t take long but just curious why its happening. Its been happening over the past few days.

If you are updating every time it means none of your updates are staying saved in their respective directories. This failure to save is usually due to one of these reasons:

  • Antivirus/malware apps quarantining a directory
  • Broken directory permissions
  • Filesync services like OneDrive or Dropbox
  • Optimizer applications
  • Drive-cleaning utilities
  • A dying drive

You could try clearing the Battle.Net launcher’s cache, as sometimes corrupted cache files can cause repetitive behavior. Also, ensuring your system’s date and time settings are accurate can prevent communication issues between your computer and the servers. Lastly, if you’re using a firewall or antivirus, make sure it’s not interfering with the launcher’s operations. These steps often resolve unusual behaviors with game launchers.
