Game won't launch after today's update

attempted an optional windows update, to no avail. Still, attempting the launch of WoW still yields no appearance of it in the task manager. I’m noting there was another thread where some others were having similar issues that I didn’t post in… haven’t pulled that up yet to see if anyone had any luck yet… I suppose I’ll resign myself to derping around in Factorio until next update comes around, unless the other thread proves something in it (if so I’ll post that in here)

((War within wont launch - #5 by Calestri-magtheridon was the post I was seeing that was deeper in, no-one had helped in it, nor has there been any help in it yet, and similar issues as in this thread basically))
