Same here!
any answer from a tech support yet???
Gonna post the solution that helped me in the other thread. You need to delete your BNet cache.
Go to https://www.partitionwizard.com/partitionmagic/battle-net-stuck-on-initializing.html and follow Solution 3.

I was having the same issue. Not sure if it’s a massive update or there’s simply something wrong with their deployment of the update. Either way, I got around it by going into my retail folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft_retail_), and launching the wow.exe from there. Game started right up. Hope this works for others.
I just uninstalled the launcher and got a new one, but after it created a new launcher for me, it is still stuck on “initializing” so I submitted a ticket. I also included all those diag and ms files they always ask for and a screen shot of the launcher stuck at the initializing stage.
I was supposed to run some events tonight with my guild…but I can’t even log in.
Can’t log into retail, 10 hour queue on Wrath… remember back in the day when they would credit you 1 day of game time for a 10 minute maintenance?

Also, be warned. When you relaunch the BNet app, it’s going to act like you never installed the game. Do not install it, choose the link under that to find the install location. Then select the retail folder wherever you have WoW installed.
