take your gw.dat file and the screenshots and put them to a safe place.
then erase the guild wars folder, get a new client from the guildwars homepage and put your game data file and the screens back in after install.

hope it helps.


you are lucky, i am getting FrApi.cpp Exceptions again after the last update...
i think .net is messing things up again...

If Uzil trick doesn't work, uninstall guildwars and don't backup the gw.dat.

The update could of corrupted gw.dat file. If this is the case you will have to redownload a ton of stuff.
