Hey guys, if this is in the wrong place, please move it to the right location.

Turns out the latest NVIDIA driver/GeForce driver seems to be the issue that's preventing from WoW from working, I tried the game on my other system and I had zero issues with it, so best thing to do is so roll back the driver, and hope NVIDIA release another update, that won't cause issues for the game. I've uninstalled my NVIDIA drivers and now my WoW launches without any issues, as they were rolled back. Let's hope NVIDIA's next update doesn't break the game again.

Hello,
I actually installed the latest NVIDIA driver on my machine and launched the game yesterday without any issues whatsoever. Could it be another reason that the game isn't starting?

Hey there,

I can also confirm that it can't be that update since I got it yesterday and everything was working just fine.

Feel free to contact me via forum PM or discord. (Fanca#6164)

Weird, when mine updated yesterday, was when my game wouldn't launch, I'd get the same error as other players had, Error #132, yet after reinstalling my drivers, the game works. My only guess is, that it's either my OS being a total derp, even though it was reinstalled 3 months ago, or my graphics card could be on the way out.

Hello,
Well it is possible that it is caused by something else. You can refer to this topic for more information.

I've tried to update the drivers but Windows keeps saying they're already up to date. My graphics card is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650, with AMD Ryzen Vega Graphics. All I can do is, keep an eye on any issues with my system again, even though the game ran perfectly just fine this morning on my gaming laptop. So it's either the Windows Update, or my NVIDIA driver was corrupted.

Hello,
Just to note that I am running the same graphics card, albeit with Intel integrated graphics, with latest updates on both Windows and NVIDIA, and I have no issues. Unfortunately I cannot offer any possible solution for the time being.

I'm grateful for everyone's out put. So far my game is working, so fingers crossed it's just my PC being annoying. Thanks everyone. <3
