Can't open World Editor at all

[Gluttonous]

I have collected several legal copies of Warcraft 3 over the years. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times. For some reason the world editor just stopped working. When I try to load it, nothing happens. I've tried running as admin. I'm using Windows 8, but the world editor did work for some time before this. World editor doesn't show up in task manager, so it never gets loaded at all. Warcraft 3 itself works normally. Does anybody have any suggestions for what I could try?

Did you try opening world editor hacks, like newgen?

use the microsoft process monitor to check what the world editor process is doing.

When you uninstalled warcraft 3 did you remove all the warcraft 3 related folders? Did you uninstall both games? Have you tried downloading fresh copies of warcraft 3 from you battlenet account? Have you tried installing latest patch by connecting to battlenet in game? All I could think of
