Unable to play Warcraft 3 on Battle after system reinstal

Hello,
I own original copies of Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos and The Frozen Throne, and I still have the original CD keys for both games.

A few days ago, before reinstalling my operating system, I was able to launch and play Warcraft 3: Reforged without any issues.

After the system reinstall, the Battle.net application no longer detects my installed Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos and The Frozen Throne, and I cannot add them to the app manually. Without this, I am unable to access Battle.net features in the game.

Please assist me in restoring access to the game.
Thank you.

Hey! I have the exact same error, I used to play wc3 a few days ago and I reinstalled my windows and I cannot manaage to get wc3 back on my computer. I did download the “offline” version but Bnet does not seem to figure out that I actually own the game. Please help!

I have the same problem. After reinstalling Windows, BattleNet doesn’t detect my Warcraft 3 and tells me to buy another one, even though the keys are visible in the app and codes are assigned.

I recived answer and ITS WORKS

  1. Log out of the Battle.net App: Make sure you are fully logged out of your account.

  2. Open the Battle.net App without logging in: When you open the app, on the login screen, you’ll see a gear icon in the top right corner (next to the email or phone number field). Click on that gear icon and select the option “Continue without logging in.”

  3. Download Warcraft III: Once inside the app without being logged in, you should see the option to install Warcraft III. Download the game from there.

  4. Log in to verify your license: After the game is installed, log in to the Battle.net App so the system can verify that you have the original Warcraft III Classic license associated with your account.
