WoW won't launch after I click "Play" Button

Hello,

WoW (retail) won’t launch after clicking “Play” in the battle.net launcher. It worked yesterday just fine, and now it won’t launch today.

Please help.

Edit: It finally launched 4 clients after about 10 minutes, still need help getting that time down to something more reasonable.

Edit2: Nevermind I figured it out

Mine won’t either. I have to just click the game without the launcher.

So what did you figure out? I have this issue from time to time and would love to fix it for good.

It’s popping up again for me, too.

At first I thought it might be because maintenance, but bypasssing the launcher doesn’t work for me, either.

Seven minutes last night before anything happened after I clicked “play”. All my other games launch right away

Mine is randomly doing something similar. I waited out the last attempt and it took around 7 minutes for the game to actually launch. Sometimes it won’t at all unless I shut everything down and restart several times.

After last nights update (predownload for next patch) wow just opens for a second and then closes. Both classic and retail do this but not wotlk classic it runs fine.
