As subject reads; ever since the 2nd patch on Wednesday I have been unable to use the /wiki command in the game. I’ve relaunched the game multiple ways in different compatibility modes and admin statuses and nothing’s worked.

Worth noting that I’m using 64-bit Windows 10, but installed it 2 weeks ago. Would be odd if it’s only now affecting browser functionality w/ GW2.
edit: Also, my default browser is Chrome.

Thanks in advance if any is able to offer any insight to this.

Running Win7 and (ahem) Vista, I’ve had no trouble. So it might be a problem with how Win10 thinks your browser is setup. Try changing your default browser to something else (from IE to Firefox or Firefox to Safari or whatever) and see if that changes anything.

Also, I’d recommend working with customer service to troubleshoot this. They are usually pretty good at helping resolve this sort of thing, plus it will help anyone encountering this issue later. (Follow the links starting with ‘Support’ in the upper left of this page.)

Alright; I tried switching default browsers and it worked with Firefox. Interesting. I have to check to see what the deal is with Chrome, then, but at least I know now it’s not the game client itself that’s having a bug but its ability to communicate with Chrome.

If I find more toying about gets Chrome to play nice with the GW2 client I’ll update this post again.

Thanks for the help.

Glad it worked, even though it shouldn’t have changed anything.

(I wonder if that’s why some people are having trouble with the TP, too — especial gold:gem custom exchange.)

It might be some setting in Chrome — something like a permission or cert that it requires. Or maybe you need to whitelist the wiki. If you find out, let us know.

And good luck either way.
