        How to Install and Play Diablo 2 & Diablo 2 - Lord of Destruction Without the Physical Game Discs/CDs
          Requirements: Valid CD-Keys

    Steps

      1 - Enter this site: http://battle.net/ and click the My Account tab in the top right corner. Create an account if you don't already have one. If you already have one simply proceed to step 2.

      2 - Log in to your account and then click your Account Name in the top right corner, then proceed to click Account Settings.

      3 - Click the green Add a Game Key button located on the right hand side of the page.

      4 - Enter your 16 digit Diablo 2 CD-Key into the box and click REDEEM CODE.
        If you wish to install Diablo 2 - Lord of Destruction too, do the same as in step 3 and 4, but use your Lord of Destruction CD-Keys instead.

      5 - If successful you should now be able to see the added game(s) listed on your Account Settings page, under the Classic Games tab.

      6 - You can now download and install the game(s) by clicking on them and then Download Game Client. Remember to note down your 26 digit CD-Key for the installation process (and don't show this key to anyone!).

      7 - Start by downloading and installing Diablo 2. When asked for a CD-Key use the 26 digit CD-Key which has been generated on your Diablo 2 license page.

      8 - Do the same for Diablo 2 - Lord of Destruction.

      9 - Congratulations, if you followed the above steps correctly, you now have Diablo 2 or Diablo 2 - Lord of Destruction installed which you can play without the discs/CDs.

        Note: If you're unable to start the game or get online in-game after the installation has completed, run the game as administrator. Right-click the game shortcut and then select Run as administrator.
        If for some reason that doesn't work and you're unable to update/patch the game, the latest version can be manually downloaded here by selecting Diablo 2 from the drop down menu: https://battle.net/support/en/article/7836
