updating stuck at 0% for hour, can’t play, is there a fix for this?

2

I have tried it all, from clearing caches, cookies, flushing DNS, restarting router, turning off the computer, uninstalling battle.net and reinstalling, running as administrator, clearing all tasks for task manager but to no avail. Still stuck in endless loop of “initializing 0%”.

I’m in the same boat.

I got it to work using this: https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/34719

Remember, you need to go to Program DATA, nowhere else.

try restarting your computer, and updating your app center.

I’ve seen the Lord work in ways yet more mysterious.
I’ve also seen a television screen fixed by a hammer strike, so it might actually work.

Definitely, but he probably knows a thing or two about coding.
He coded us, after all.

Ok, I don’t know what has changed, I let the app attempt to initialize for the past hour and it suddenly stopped attempting to initialize and told me to check my internet connection and then began to download… So now it’s working. But why? I have no idea.
