Good stuff man. Love the site btw. Dan help at all?
didn’t work for me
Hi Abe,
when you say it didn’t work me, do you mean the file doesn’t work or you can’t obtain the cd key with above method? Some things to try
1) did you make sure you loaded the extractor program prior to launching the Warcraft game?
2) Go ahead and create a game in local area network
Yeah, its not working for me either and I tried both things mentioned above but it still didn’t work.
Tried it all, dont work. I have windows vista. if that matters at all.
If you use Vista, you need to run the CD-Key grabber under the administrator account. Right click the W3CDKeyGrabber and click “Run as Administrator”. Everything else works as outlined in the article. Have fun :p
Thanks for the tip synque!
Nice! It worked on me ! Ty alot
not worked :’( !!
som1 can help me with it ? pls
is to old this version! a new one?
ran extractor program as Run as Administrator”. opened Warcraft III and it worked fine. this version works on version 1.21e no problem
Yeah that worked as you told (Win XP SP2)! Thanks a lot! We mixed our WC3 cd’s in lan party, that solved the problem.
how do i run sumthing as an administrator on vista if my account isnt an administartot

where do you right click?
If you are running a vista. U should “Run as adminstrator”. It worked for me
does it really work??!?!
It didn’t work for me either. no key even after following the directions. perhaps due to the fact I still have dial up?
how does it work and whose cd-key u get?
It worked perfectly for me! Thanks a lot!
i did what it tells me here and and it tells me this plz help me with this problem?
invalid bnetkey2 in ini file”WARCRAFT3ROCCDKEYHERE” is not 26 characters long
invalid bnetkey2 in ini file”FROZENTHRONECDKEYHERE” is not 26 characters long
yea i have Vista u said ” run as Administrator ” where is that at?
some one please help me as soon as possible
dude u right click and go run as administrator.
if u arent admin, ask the admin to do it, unless ur not authorised, in which case go home
Hi, Thanks so much for this post, i recently lost my Warcraft3 & Warcraft3 TFT Cd case and was unable to retrieve my Cd-keys. After my computer was reformatted Warcraft3 & ‘ ” ” TFT’ were unable to update from battlenet so i was unable to play Warcraft3 online.
Thanks for saving me $50.00 and allowing me to reinstall Warctaft3 &’ ” ” TFT’.
Cheers Robbie, P.
Didn’t work for me , it’s written ” Failed to hash WAR3 key”
I’m trying to re-install with a lost case, how does this work? You can’t make a local game without first installing. But by that point i won’t need the key? Please explain how this works.
Well, same as kev, will some1 answer please ? it says ” Unable to hash tft key ”
I didn’t tried that yet, but I have few questions.
First of all, warcraft 3 asks cd key before u start to install. How can I launch warcraft before I install it? I mean CD key will be required before i install right?
Second, does that works on bnet as well?
I’d be pleased if someone can explain
i did what it tells me here and and it tells me this plz help me with this problem?
invalid bnetkey2 in ini file”WARCRAFT3ROCCDKEYHERE” is not 26 characters long
invalid bnetkey2 in ini file”FROZENTHRONECDKEYHERE” is not 26 characters long
i got same help plz
hey does the country it says under your name have anything to do with one’s ability to host pickup.listchecker games?
when you use the cd key grabber
For all those who has Vista:
Do not just run it!
You need to run it as ADMINNISTRATOR!
can someone send me a cd key plz coz i cant log onto bnet at all.!
Thx a lot i can connect to bnet now!!!
Wripoff dont do it, it just steals your cd key for someone else!!!!
Dont do it!

When I did it, all it gave me was my own CD key, which doesn’t help me at all. Anything I’m doing wrong?
-Launched the CD key program
-Then Launched Warcraft
-Went to Local Game Area and created a game
-Alt-tab out of it
- My own info

That’s what the program is for, you idiot! To retrieve your own cd key in case you lost it.
At least you got it to work, unlike some others who can’t follow directions.
Okay…I am running windows vista and I have the W/C 3 cd in the cd rom…I d/l the key grabber and am running in admin mode. when the w/c opens up it will not let me install without a cd key, and also when I open it I DO NOT SEE LAN anywhere. if you can help it would be greatly appreciated.
Its not working for me any suggestions
When i right click the thing nothin comes up wtf?!?

Idiot? Any occurance to you that there could of been a misunderstanding of the use of the program. This link appears under many different kind of searches revolving around stealing Warcraft Keys, or trying to find a NEW one. Personally thats what I was doing. But I’ll just go ask a friend for theirs.
On the other hand, this is a very good program, if using it for the right things.
Thank you so much man!, I started hosting and need one of my cd keys and thank god i found this
DOes this work for macs? r is there a mac version?
Very VERY nice! Blizz just opened up their store to register keys, and I’ve lost my disks since then. This kept me from having to buy the game all over again!
Thanks for the program. Worked very well
It works on vista also if you right click on the program and select “Run As Administrator”
ok i wanna use this is recover my cd key from my computer since i lost the case. is this gonna steal my cd key?
ok nothin comes out when i right clicked it to run as admin
ok nvm i got it
I’m having problems trying to track my CD Keys. I load this program, then startup WC3 and go to LAN, nothing happens. I’ve tried everything i can think of so far yet no luck. I’m using windows XP atm, any advice would be appreciated.
it work!
but i can’t connect battle net coz my CD key is invalid ..so if u know tell me..please
is there a way to decrypt your cd key from the listchecker.ini file once it has been encrypted?
jstoker,
the encrypt in the .ini file has the cd key mixed in with a bncha random numbers/letters. so unless you’re good at guessing, or know all the letters but dont know the order… [which i doubt is the case] then you cant decrypt
sorry
it worked, i have version 1.22 and no problem with grabbing
umm, when i try to open it I get a message saying ” This application has failed to start because MSVBVM60.DLL was not found.” Anything I can do to fix this?
yooooo my warcraft wont allow me into local area…. it sez somthing about a connect. i have internet n battle.net but only no local
Can someone please explain this too me plz.
So I want to install WC3 but don’t have the CD Key, will this program help me?
This Program is awesome. It worked Great!!
This Program saved me from buying another copy that I already had. A friend wanted to borrow it to play but the CD-Key some how got damaged and they wanted $10.00 just to replace the Key.
Thanks,
Techster2
I would just like to say I officially love you.
I had lost my cd keys and wasn’t looking forward to buying new ones but this program saved me from having to do so
Thank you so much for providing it!
Will someone change the top to add a disclaimer saying something like
“This is only to retrieve lost Warcraft CD keys, this is not a keygen or any software to pirate/bypass the registration process of the game/installer”
Something like that… So many n00blets.
Anyone know a D2 CD Key Grabber?
Works perfectly! Thanks man!
alot of ppl here are stupid. YOU HAVE TO HAVE WARCRAFT INSTALLED ON YOUR COMPUTER ALREADY TO USE THIS.
Thanks
I get this “Failed to hash WAR3 key” when i try to host. can someone help me?
Hmm so this is to steal your own cd key? (Well it shows it)
