Hi Simaan3, are you starting HB before you load your Character?
 
I'm logged in my character atm but once i start up honorbuddy, it just goes straight to an error
 
Ok, quit out of WOW and use the HB launcher to start WOW, login your character and then login HB
 
Ok, quit out of WOW and use the HB launcher to start WOW, login your character and then login HB
It didn't work as soon as i set it to open with wow launcher it just gave me the error again and closed
 
I can confirm this, I'm having the same problem
I'm having a hard time fixing this issue, if anyone can give some advice because I'm leaving in an hour to go eat and I would like it to quest for me till i get back
 
Try downloading an old version of HB and letting it update automatically or you can try the latest beta version to keep you going until it is fixed.
