If you've started using a new firewall or antivirus program, there's a change it is the cause. Personally, I suggest sticking with Windows Defender and nothing else. It is the most reliable and stable.

• Open your antivirus or firewall application.

• Look for a setting that allows you to add exceptions or manage firewall rules.

• Add each Blizzard application (like Battle.net, World of Warcraft, Overwatch) to the exceptions list.

• Alternatively, you can temporarily disable your antivirus or firewall to test if it resolves the issue.

Battle.net offers a repair tool that can fix corrupted or missing game files, which might be causing disconnection issues.

Clear cache files

Clearing the cache files removes temporary data that can fix the problem if it is isolated to a specific game.

• Your first task is to delete Blizzard Entertainment folders from certain locations.

• In Windows search, type %programdata% and press Enter.

• Delete the Blizzard Entertainment folder.

• Repeat the process with the %localappdata% directory.
