Application Doesn't Launch/Event Log
Forgive, but I am pretty new to using win7 (about a week or two), but do possess good general knowledge. Last night, I tried to launch an application (World of Warcraft Launcher). Nothing happened, no error message at all. Was trying from it's Task Bar icon, tried it from a desktop shortcut, even navigated to it in Explorer and tried directly launching it. Double click and nothing happens. I could launch the game itself, so was able to participate in my Guild's raid (which seems to indicate Windows was working). Asked there and was told look in the event log.
Ha, it seems that several utility type applications that I can't really find I CAN find via the Help system and launch them from there, but that's another issue. Anyway, scour as I could in the Event Viewer, I simply could NOT find any kind of entry pertaining to what I was trying to do, launch an application (btw, this application worked just fine earlier in the day).
So today, just out of habit, I tried to launch it and low and behold, it now does launch.
Can anyone shed any light on why and how this can happen?
