Guild Wars 2

For winxp I can log in using windowed mode. Here is what I did to be able to log into the game.

1) create shortcut for GW2.exe
2) Right click on the shortcut, choose properties.
3) On the target line, put -windowed at the end. It would look something like (“C:\GW2\GW2.exe” -windowed)
4) Click on apply.

It should let you into the game when you double click on the shortcut you just created. I hope I was able to help.

Bethsaida,

I am sorry if I wasn’t clear in my suggestion. After you create the shotcut for GW2.exe, please right click on the shortcut, choose properties, and in target line add the -windowed at the end. It should look something like this (target: “C:\GW2\GW2.exe” -windowed). You are not changing the shortcut to Gw2-windowed. I hope that helps.

Bethsaida,

Try creating a shortcut for your GW2.exe and add “-windowed” at the end of it. That should allow you to log into game in window mode.

I’ve received an email that this issue has been resolved from GW2 support but I’ve not had a chance to test it yet. Can someone who’s running GW2 on XP please confirm?

Thanks,

Marshie
