I have a fresh install of WoW on my M1 Mac and it won’t launch.
Steps I have followed:
- Installed from site
- Gave ‘Full Disk Access’ to Battlenet App and the Agent (because WoW wouldn’t download without these, that in itself was a PITA to figure out)
- Once fully installed, tried to click ‘Play’ for retail WoW
- ‘Lauching’ displays on button for about 20 seconds, nothing happens and the ‘Play’ is displayed again
- Checked the permissions for the ‘World of Warcraft’ and ‘World of Warcraft Launcher’ apps (both have full 777 permissions)
- Tried to launch WoW directly from file explorer, get message ‘application can’t be opened’
This is so annoying and frustrating, been over a day and still can’t play
UPDATE: This issue has been resolved just now when I updated WoW to 10.2.0.52148, it now runs correctly. I didn’t even have to restart laptop or anything, just update and it ran
