On an official Blizzard page (https:// us .battle .net/support/en/article/000194130) the link to install the Non-Reforged Warcraft III versions give the wrong download setup. If you click them they will send you to a page ( example: https:// download .battle.net/en-us/?platform=windows&product=w3tft&locale=enUS ) and automatically start downloading “Battle.net-Setup.exe” which is the wrong file, it is supposed to be “Warcraft-III-Setup.exe”, Blizzard please fix this as quickly as possible.
For thoes of you who would like an alternative and quick solution to your problem, if you have the game on a different machine or know of a friend who has the game the device should have the old “Warcraft-III-Setup.exe” somewhere in its files if it hasent been deleted or presumably you can check the download history of the browser used in the last time it was downloaded. In either case you can send a copy of the setup via e-mail or using a flash drive to your current machine.
That is all take care.
That does seem confusing, especially since Blizzard no longer officially offers the preReforged versions of the WC3 (which is likely why those links don’t provide the pre Reforged versions).
I’ll pass it on to Bliz to see if they want to adjust the article’s wording.
