Branflake.8931 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Trying to reinstall the client after not playing for a few years.I click the download link on the site and click the 64 bit and the Gw2setup-64.exe fails every time. I have tried different browsers and restarted my pc a few different times.Has anyone else had this issue?Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linken.6345 Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 have you tried renaming said file to just gw2.exe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Healix.5819 Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Here's Gw2-64.exe direct from the patch server. Rename it to either Gw2-64.exe and place it wherever you want to install it, or rename it to Gw2Setup-64.exe to invoke the setup. If you can't download it, something's likely preventing you from downloading executables, so check any security software. You can verify your connection to the patch server here. If you can't connect to the patch server, ensure you didn't use an old hosts edit and flush your DNS or use Google's DNS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quezako.7051 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I had the same problem. I just used a free VPN, like SetupVPN for Chrome and it was way faster to download it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Be aware, you can not ping Amazon servers. Thus, they will always show 100% loss.(Not unless you do some special adjustments.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
