Awesome, thanks!
Did you use WPF instead of Windows Forms before? If not, do it! You could easily recreate the design of e.g. the battle.net launcher, which would make this launcher way better imo.

No I did not, might look into it for the next application that I decide make. Thanks for the idea!

You can accomplish the battle net launcher look with win form too.. its just more custom coding with the ui. Wpf is fun

I'm not playing much atm, but i still could find a way to use the launcher! I can easily switch between my local and my online development server now. :3
I didn't test it with custom servers yet, but what will the launcher do in case of 2 or more custom servers? Will it delete all custom files? If not, what will happen if server 1 and server 2 both deliver e.g. a patch-4.mpq?

That's not something you want to do with winforms, trust me.
I've used WPF pretty often at work, it's something that i would really miss when i want to create a good looking application. I even made whole loading screens with some XAML and 1 or 2 lines of code.

When you select a custom server it moves the server's custom files to the \Data\ directory and when you close/change server it moves the files back to \ServerData\{ServerName}, so it does work for multiple custom servers!
