What does this fixed wow exe do?
The fixed wow.exe forces wow to open custom patches such as the Azerothica Nude Patch.
Why is it needed?
The fixed wow.exe is needed to run any custom patch that makes changes to 3d models. The Azerothica Model Change nude patch changes the female characters in World of Warcraft and that means this is needed for that nude patch to run.
“Cannot stream required archive data. Please check your network connection” Error:(Blizzard MPQs)
Reason:
Basically one or more of your Blizzard MPQs isn’t completed. Thus WoW is trying to stream data but can’t since the patched exe has “Wow.mfil” disabled.
Fix:
Go to the Html page made by Jh16 and select your locale. >>Clicky<<
Note: this isn’t completed yet so I will need help in knowing the structures in different Data folders. For the most part they should be the same, if you find something that is missing or needs to be changed please send me a PM to Jh16 on Darknest Here >>Clicky<<
After you select the locale find the MPQ that is listed in the streaming error and click on it and it will start to download.
If you want to backup your current MPQ you can remove it from its directory before you place the newly downloaded MPQ into its place.
Once you place the new downloaded MPQ into the location the original was located you should be able to use the patched exe.
If you continue to get streaming errors for different Blizzard MPQs just continue to download and place them into their respective directories until you are able to get to the login screen without a streaming error.

Note: Older fixed wow exe’s may not work on Private Servers, as they were ment for retail servers.
Make sure you backup your wow.exe before applying the fixed exe.

Hi !
First, thanks for your work. It looks great. I have a question, I am playing on a 7.3.5 (26124) RP server and I was wondering if I could make it work on it ? Using your (26654) .exe don’t make patches work (Obviously :3). Then I have to patch my own (26124) .exe, but I don’t know where to find a patcher or a patched one. Do you have an idea for my quest ?
as far as i know the exes are only supported to work on live wow, I don’t make them myself I just host them for easy access =)
I’ve uploaded an archieve of 7.x.x exe files, I don’t have unlimited space on my site so I had to upload it somewhere else. Though there is no guarantee that any of them will work for a private server as they’re only edited and tested to work on live wow.

Oh ! Thank you for your fast answer !
I’ll try and tell you if it works then. 🙂
Thanks again for your help ! I wish you all the best with your work ! :3
Hey There!
So I downloaded the Recent Fixed Wow exe 7.3.5 and I keep getting an error when I try logging in…
Any suggestions as to why this is happening?
Please and thank you in advance!
Probably due to new patch, you can try again with the new 26755 exe =)
7.3.5.26899
7.3.5.26899
Damn you were faster then me was about to say new patch but you beat me to it 😛 for 7.3.5.26972
Does anyone know how I can make this work on the private firestorm server?
version 7.3.5 26365
the fix tells me that there is an update of the game and it does not open it.
Link of my wow.exe :
https://www70.zippyshare.com/v/UOSpGSb5/file.html
I don’t create the exes myself but just host them at my site. From what I know the editor of the exe isn’t supporting private servers at all, and just focuses on retail or Beta/PTR
Hey There,
Can you make patch for version 8.0.1.27144
and if this is possible, change original armors for new races / void elf, lightforged draenei and nightborne / to fully naked version?
Thank you for your irreplaceable and good work )
At the moment the arctium launcher is the only way, which I have posted on my blog =)
With all the patching and hotfixing Blizz is doing, I wouldn’t expect to see a new fixed exe patch until after BfA launches. Which sucks, as I had just discovered Arock’s updated armory on Darknest. But, like last time, we just have to wait a bit.
I am curious, is there a “Fixed Wow Exe” for 7.3.5 (26365) or can one be developed? Perhaps there is a alternative? Help is highly appreciated =).
Hello,
I was wondering if you install this version, does it work with the current 8.0.1? And i would love to play as a high elf but it is suggested that you download and apply the general nude patch first, but there are 2 folders called characters? Which should i copy in my general wow folder? and should i rename one?
Kind regards,
Holana
Hey Holana, I just thought I could answer this for you. The nude patch is the model pach so you copy all the files over to the game directory first where wow.exe is. The for the High Elf mod, this is just a skin for Void Elf not a model, so just overwrite by copying over the character folder.
When are the patches for 8 coming out?
At this point in time it is unknown, but I have tested Arctium’s Launcher and it does work, so I might start hosting them soon, also because of its clean track record of no ban reports since october 2017.
However the only “issue” you could say, is that you need to launch wow with that custom launcher and you’ll have to type in your password every time, kinda like in the old days, as you cannot launch it directly from the bnet launcher which automaticly logs you onto wow.
But that is not to say fixed exe’s wouldn’t come sometime in the future, but from what I know it doesn’t look much like that will be anytime soon.
Aah ok. Any idea why?
Where will you host the patches? Will you do the nude patches too or will your exe’s work with what’s already here or…..?
Ah minor annoyance for all the fun these patches give
That is a crying shame
Im thinking of making a new section for arctium wow launcher in downloads, to sepperate it from fixed wow exe. I make the nude patches and right now you can still use legion non model change nude patch with BFA, there is no changes to that, just use arctium launcher. You can find their discord link on their site that i posted a link to on my blog.
And yes right now we only have arctium launcher that works, so if you want to see nudity in wow you have to use it. It also seems safe so that is why I am going to host it on my site soon.
Also lastly if anyone reads this, I am about to get a new job and it will give me less free time, but I will try to do my best to keep updating and also experiment more with my MMO and also I’ll try to have an update for BFA with new allied races too =)
Hey was curious if you were planning to release a nude patch and whatnot for bfa?
at the moment you can still just download the legion nude patch and use it in BFA, it just doesnt have the very newest allied races added, but it still works just fine
I’m trying to use the 7.3.5 fixed exe for Rp Heaven but I keep getting the error “An updated version of World of Warcraft is available. Please launch the Battle.net app to download the update.”
I made sure the versions matched up when I installed it.
The exe’s were never made for private servers, they are made at the time retail wow had that version and that is also written on the download page as a notice, in red color. Though for RP heaven specifically you don’t even need a fixed exe, it just works if you apply any mod, so you can just use the normal exe that comes with it when installing it =)
Hi thanks for the great work!
Its work to the offi server.
why dont work it from the P-Server from firestorm (Legion)?
pls help me
They probably have some different wow.exe that has already been modded by firestorm team themself in order for that private server to work. But the author who creates these exe’s never wanted to spend time on modding all kinds of different private server wow exe files
Hi.
How can I contact the creator of “fixed wow.exe”? I am also interested in applying the patch in Firestorm and if he does not want to modify the .exe, I would like to ask him for advice to do it myself.
Thanks.
You can find him here

How would you install your mods that you host on a 3.3.5 private server? I cant see any patches for that besides this fix here.
You can probably use MoP patch, maybe the non model change will work because you wont need a fixed exe for a 3.3.5 server. Fixed wow exe doesn’t work for private servers, because all private servers are different and you cant just have an exe work for all private servers out there. Try read the install instructions for the non model change patch for MoP, it might work but otherwise try call the MPQ file patch-x.mpq and just move it into the data folder. I dont quite remember how it was like for LK expansion but worth a shot
i remember quite clearly how to use patches on WLK client.
there are 2kinds of patches, model change ones and non-model change ones.
put either kind (i dont remember which one tho, sorry) in your \Data folder,
there are official patch files already in that folder, (named as patch-2.MPQ)
and you should rename you patches like patch-A.MPQ ,
(all the way from A-Z if you have multiple patches.)
and put the other kind into \Data\enUS folder,
and rename them like patch-enUS-A.MPQ
modified patches worked perfectly fine back in retail WLK days,
and they also worked fine on warmane 335 private server.
goodluck.
greetings Esidien ,
since the Classic is based on a 7.x.x client
and during the 7.x.x period every patch and fixed wow.exe worked perfectly fine
so maybe we can have all those patches work on Classic in the future?
i just didnt find any news about Classic here so I decide to leave a reply here.
if you’ve already talked about Classic please paste me the link and thank you and sorry to bother!
I thought the same as you, that while it is based on v7.3.5 perhaps it is possible to do such an edit but we would have to wait untill classic already arrives at august 27th to get the finished version of the game and its original wow.exe file at that time, to then try look at it and mod it.
glad to hear that.
hope it’ll work .
thanks!
