I think you will have better luck posting in the Tech Support sub-forum.

Some people have claimed to have resolved this by changing the language to French to complete the download and then back to English. I know it worked for some Mac users and I think I saw some PC users claim the same thing. I know it sounds weird but it seems to have worked for some people.

ty but i can even change the language

For future reference, it was likely the local.dat file as the culprit. The log file and crash file presumably had nothing to do with the problem, however that local.dat file can be one menacing presence from what I hear sometimes.

still not working any1 can help ?

I don’t really want to hijack this guy’s thread, but have you checked your firewall’s whitelist and made sure that the proper ports are open on your router for Guild Wars 2 to use?

Ok I found a way to work. At least worked for me. Here it goes:
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Command_line_arguments

Windows via shortcut
You can execute switches directly from your Guild Wars 2 shortcut:
1. Right click on your Guild Wars 2 shortcut and select ‘Properties’.
2. In the ‘Target Area’ field you will see the location of your Guild Wars 2 executable file: …\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe
3. Write the desired command line arguments after the quote marks, each beginning with a space: “…\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe” -perf -windowed

OR

Windows via start/run
If you don’t plan on using an argument frequently, it can be easier to use the Windows’ Run command for a single invocation.
1. Click the “Start” button
2. Select “Run” (not required for Windows 7)
3. Enter the path to the GW2.exe in quotes followed by the arguments you wish to use (same as above, but in a single line).
4. Press enter.

I don’t understand how telling people how to use command line switches will help? Perhaps you should list the switches they should use. -windowed doesn’t seem like something most people would want.
