Hi iceatope – I’m curious if you have Gw2.exe in your temp folder by accident. The easiest way to resolve this issue is to pull it out of the temp drive and onto the C drive by following the below steps:

1. Hold down the Windows button on the keyboard and hit the R key.

2. Paste in the following line and then click OK.
C:\users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp

2. Find Gw2.exe and right-click on the file and select Cut

3. Go to your C drive and into the Games folder. If there is no Games folder, create one.

4. In the Games folder, create the folder Guild Wars 2 and go into it.

5. In the Guild Wars 2 folder, right-click and select Paste.

6. Run Gw2.exe from the Guild Wars 2 folder.

The game should launch and immediately start patching. Two additional files should be created: Gw2.dat and Gw2.tmp
