Help! "unable to start game service initialization failed. (0x0175dcbb)" [SOLVED]

Hi, i encountered this error after updating the game and re-cracking with the freshest copy of ultimate fix.

I've read the other threads on this problem and went ahead to search the registry.

I've checked the installed dir/exec paths and there wasn't anything out of the ordinary.

SKU for base game has been set to 2.

There wasn't any orphaned expansion registry entries and there were 4 expansions present (which tallies to the expansions i've installed)

Any other things you guys would like for me to try? Thank you.

//EDIT

UPDATE.

Kept stubbornly running TS3.exe instead of TS3W.exe.

It works now~ Silly me.
