We've implemented a brand new option which gives players the ability to hide the World of Warcraft launcher. The default setting for the launcher will be set to invisible, so if you'd like to view the launcher you will need to check the "show launcher" box, now appearing on the opening login screen for World of Warcraft.

Please be aware that under special circumstances, the launcher will still show up even if set invisible, such as when we update the launcher, or the launcher updates the game.
