Intel Mac Wow Crashes on launch after dragonflight pre-patch

When I launch World of Warcraft from battle.net launcher, it crashes, and doesn’t even get to the start screen. This has only started happening after yesterday’s dragonflight pre-patch.

Same problem. I tried reinstalling the entire game, I tried scanning the installation, I tried restarting my computer. Nothing. Pre-patch really broke everything.

I did the wow repair, reinstalled wow, and all the OS updates. Still nothing

I had the same experience on my macbook pro with intel chip, (os 10.15.7) everything was working fine, then when prepatch loaded and i pressed the play button dragonflight crashed.

i then ran the scan and repair on the launcher, then ran first aid on my mac, then i removed all the addon files, then tried again.

it crashed again

Worked just fine before the pre-patch…

I am also receiving this issue. Exactly as described above, installed the pre-patch and then my previously working client crashes to desktop. I have tried deleting all files, WTF and doing a full re-install.

Looking at the error file, it’s definitely something to do with Intel processing:
