Diablo 3 will not allow me to add it under the Battle.net group #846

Hello, First off, thank you so much for your efforts on this program. I have sent a donation, and believe anyone who benefits from your work should do the same.

Anyhow, my issue is that two of my games, StarCraft 1 and 2 were both detected fine, and added to the DB under the Battle.net group. However, even if I scan the directory where Diablo 3 is installed, it does not detect it. I can add it manually, and every single line of the Diablo 3 object in the DB matches what is in SC1&2 (Publisher, Source, etc...) they all match precisely what those games show, and yet the game still gets added to a Playnite group, and will not change to the Battle.net group, regardless of what information is in the metadata.

In an effort to keep all of my games organized in proper groups, is there any way I can force Diablo 3 into the Battle.net group? I have searched your forums, and added the action as described in one of your threads, making sure this line, "battlenet://D3/" was added, and still nothing. Is there anything else I might be able to do to try and accomplish what I am attempting to do?

Thank you so much for your help, as well as for your efforts on this very helpful tool. Great job my friend!!

Hi, thanks for the donation.

See this page, you need to go to battle.net client and repair Diablo 3 installation. Battle.net sometimes doesn't properly add all necessary files needed by Playnite to detect game if you just import it from folder, repairing installation should fix the problem.

That fixed the issue, game is properly listed now. I wish you great success, and hope that folks that benefit from your efforts donate, because you have done good work here. Thank you for your help!
