Skip Reentering Your Warhammer Password
in the Patcher

Another tip for you folks of the WAAAGH persuasion: do you hate having to re-enter your account password into the patcher each time you start? There’s a simple XML hack to bypass that.

Open up C:Program FilesElectronic ArtsWarhammer Online – Age of Reckoningpatch_user.xml in your favorite text editor. There’s only a couple lines of code.

<userConfig>
    <login name="account username" />
</userConfig>

All we need to do is add a password attribute there, like so:

<userConfig>
    <login name="account username" password="account password" />
</userConfig>

Obviously replacing “account username” and “account password” with your appropriate credentials. Save the file and launch the patcher. Your password will be all filed out for you, and all you need to do is press OK. Simple, eh?
