The Frozen Login Issue is a common issue within PWO that may only occurs during initial login. It rarely occurs when you are logging off your game (your game button froze).

Problem Description

If you logged in and you notice that it appears to be taking longer time than usual to play and you can't close the News & Updates Message Board. You can't press any button in the client (such as when it prompts you to select Yes or No when you logging off). No matter what you do you just can't quit the game.

Solutions

End Process (Quick fix for Windows OS)

Windows Task Manager

If this happens to you rarely. Press Alt+Ctrl+Del, or right-clcik on the taskbar and select Task Manager. Press on the Processes Tab and find PWO.exe (may vary based on your Windows version). After you found it, select End Process in the bottom right of the dialog or right-click on it and press End Process/End Process Tree.

Extended issue

If you have this happen to you frequently and you are irritated with the End Process method, download the program from the link provided below to help you close PWO instantly when you faced the frozen login issues. I would suggest putting it somewhere close by.

While 1 ;time to run a loop to keep the program open

If ProcessExists($proc1) Then $start = True ;if pwo is open, then
ClosePWO() ;going to close pwo
If Not ProcessExists($proc1) Then $start = False ;if pwo is closed,
EndProgram() ;going to exit the program
WEnd

Func ClosePWO()
While $start = True ;pwo is open
If $start = True Then ProcessClose($proc1) ;lets close it!
