Removed Battle.net app now D3 fails on launch(1)Category: Technical SupportJuly-5-2014 10:30 AM PDT (8 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
Because of the graphics freezing in SCII HotS, I removed the Battle.net launcher. This has solved my SCII issues, but now when I launch DIII from the direct app, the launch fails and any attempts to relaunch DIII results in a demand that I install the Battle.net launcher.

Does this mean that I can no longer play both SCII and DIII on the same system?

Timpraetor,

When starting the game directly like that, add a -launch tag to the command line used.

Create a desktop shortcut to the Diablo III Launcher.exe file unless one already exists. Then right click it and select properties. On the target line, after the last quote symbol, add a space and -launch.

It will look something like this:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Diablo III\Diablo III Launcher.exe" -launch

That should then use the original launcher as long as the Desktop App isn't present.

Note, this isn't going to work forever as we're heading towards requiring all (non-classic) of our games to use the Desktop App eventually.
