Fail Patch

We wanted to stress one major point about the migration process that is occurring with World of Warcraft with this current patch. If you're getting errors about not having enough file size and are confused by this it's important to remember that everything in the game is being converted/patched on the fly. This means that the game will essentially DOUBLE in size of it's current install usage. So if you only have ~10-15GB free then you may run into these problems. In these situations the only way around this at this time is to completely remove the game and reinstall from the new installer. I'm going to place the instructions to ensure the game is completely removed below, along with re-installation instructions. :)

In order to remove World of Warcraft safely from your system, you will need to go into your Control Panel and use Add/Remove Programs. To do this, first go to the Start/Windows button, click Control Panel, and then double click on Add or Remove Programs.

-For Windows XP, you will have the add/remove programs option.
-For Windows Vista/7, you will have an uninstall/remove option under the "Programs" or "Programs and Features" section.



If the game is not listed in your Add/Remove Programs, or you receive an error during the uninstallation process, then you will have to manually uninstall the game by deleting the application directory where the program was installed. The default location is "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft". On Vista/7, this folder may also have been moved to "C:\Users\Public\Games\World of Warcraft".

You will also want to search your hard drive for any Warcraft related files and delete them, including your Temporary folders and the Blizzard Entertainment folder from the common files folder. These folders will normally be located at:

C:\Windows\Temp
C:\Documents and Settings\<YourName>\Local Settings\Temp
(Delete all files in these folders that you are able to. Some files may be used by other programs and not able to be deleted.)

C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft
(Select and Delete this folder if it exists)

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Blizzard Entertainment
(Select and Delete this folder if it exists)

C:\Users\Public\Games\World of Warcraft
(Select and Delete this folder if it exists)

C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\Blizzard Entertainment\World of Warcraft\
(Select and Delete this folder if it exists)



Once uninstalled, please also remove the remaining World of Warcraft game folder if this has not been done already. Once all previous files have been removed, re-run the installer from the downloaded install files to reinstall the game.

To download the game software, please log into your World of Warcraft account page at https://us.battle.net/account/management/download/ . Select the appropriate PC or Mac download link and save this file to your system. It's best to save the file to your desktop

*** Note for Vista and Windows 7 users: Right clicking the downloader file and selecting "Run as administrator" is recommended instead of double clicking to prevent copying, saving or other permission issues with the downloader. ***

After the game is re-installed, please make sure to not reinstall any custom UIs unless they are updated for the most current release of the game.
