Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

After manually deleting my WDB folder last week I have noticed that it has not automatically recreated itself as it normally does. This has caused me the problem of being unable to get the new stats for items that was recently added, as I am unable to delete a WDB folder that doesn't exist.

I noticed people complaining of this problem in the thread with the batch file that automatically deletes WDB for you.

Any help is appreciated.

Let's see if any of the solutions I've posted help you before breaking it down further.

^ this will erase any of your saved variables that you have if you have any at all. You will have a created WDB folder though if you don't mind setting your UI back up with your addons.

Windows Explorer will open to that directory.

This should be the same for Vista and above as Windows 95 and XP didn't have C:\Users IIRC.

For the second quote, try deleting the WDB folder in that directory if you cannot run WoW.exe as an admin. Your UI will reset, but don't worry. Copy the WTF folder from C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic to C:\Program File (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic\ and you should have all your settings, UI adjustments, etc.

If you run WoW as admin after copying the WTF folder from the VirtualStore directory, WoW may rewrite it the WTF folder to the default settings so I suggest running WoW as administrator, logging into a character, exit the game, and copy the VirtualStore WTF folder over to your C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic\ directory.

Let me know if any of this helps.

Yes, thanks, it was located in the VirtualStore file path. I found this out after posting, but since topics have to be approved by mods I wasn't able to delete the post. Sorry to waste your time with what is probably an often reposted question.

I need to update my guide to include this.
