"repair" warcraft data without reinstalling the game

[Accname]

hi mates.
recently i ve encountered a problem with my warcraft III world edit. functions have been removed mysteriously and other strange things happened. it seems to me as if my warcraft world edit somehow got corrupted and i am now looking forward to "repair" it somehow.
however what i wanna know is whether there is a simpler way of doing this then re-installing the whole game. maybe just downloading the world editor exe? copying the mpq file? what exactly do i need to repair my warcraft, please help.

Personally I would just re-install the whole game rather then using some other methods. Deleting will take less then 1 minute and reinstalling Warcraft 3 and the Frozen Throne will take maybe 5 to 10 minutes? (For me). Plus if you worry about your maps or some other third party tool being deleted, just save them into another folder and put them back to the same folder after installation?

well re-installing the game is not "that" fast for me cause i borrowed my reign of chaos CD to a friend who never played warcraft and wanted to check it out. now i am sitting here with a lonely frozen throne CD and cant work on my projects anymore.

therefor i am asking whether it would be enough to simply download the editor or maybe MPQ files or just copying the ones directly from the CD into the WCIII folder.

get the ROC installer from blizzard? they let you download it if you put in your cd-key (hopefully you kept that/have a back-uo of it)

the CD-Key is written inside the CD-Case. i will just get it back and re-install the game but i cant do it now because, well, its christmas.
but i would like to have it done till tomorrow or the day after, i am just asking whether there is another way.

then run wc3 and extract the cd key if you really want it now, otherwise just wait for the cd?

As for the actual problem, reinstalling seems to be the only way to fix it.
