I use Windows 7 and there should be 2 files in there. One says Wow-64.exe (Leave this alone) There is another file in there labeled Wow-64. Change Wow-64 to any name you'd like and when you try and launch WoW using World of Warcraft Launcher or Wow it will run WoW in 32 bit. I just did it and it works.
Yeah and now try to login.
32-bit and ingame?
then you are most likely running the game in 64bit.

Wait until Blizzard fixes this, thousands of people have complained on the forums already.

Hello,
Unable to validate game version comes about when the client version mismatches with the server version.
As said earlier in this thread, this only affects the 32 bit client. If you're able to run the 64 bit client, please select this as an option and you should be able to get into the game.
We've an article on switching between the two here:
battle.net/support/article/how-to-toggle-32bit-mode-world-of-warcraft
Of course this isn't possible for everyone. If you have to use the 32 bit client, we're looking into this now. It does seem to be happenning to anyone using the 32 bit client (I've reproduced it here) and I'll get back to you after I've tried some things to get it to work.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK it does seem that nothing done to the actual client will allow access, unless you use the 64 bit client.
Again, here's details on how to switch to the between the 32 and 64 bit clients:
battle.net/support/article/how-to-toggle-32bit-mode-world-of-warcraft
Not all of you will be able to do this, but those of you on 64 bit Operating Systems, please try this, you should be able to get into the game while we look into this.
I've forwarded this issue on for further investigation to our networking team/technicians, I'll get back to you as soon as we have more info.
Sorry about this everyone.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Done exatly as you linked but on my game client i cant click the box its blacked out so how am i ment to get on?
In that case you'll be on a 32 bit operating system and won't be able to do so, sorry about this, there's nothing we can suggest until we get this sorted.
Again, apologies for this.

32-bit isn't working for most people, congrats to those in which it is.
No matter how many which ways you select 32-bit from within windows it simply doesn't work, HB won't create a 64-bit verison but I do think creating a working 32 bit version is high priority for Blizzard so it won't be long, a large section of subscribers only use this version.

Latest blue post on Blizzard forums says:
Update this issue is being worked on. Changes to the client, such as reinstalling or repairing will not resolve this issue. Using the 64 bit client will work, but if that's not possible we are working to resolve this issue at the moment.

Not even if, blizzard did so that everyone who was running a 64 bit os could not longer use the 32 bit version(the 32 bit version would not work in a 64 bit os)
