WoW error starting wow.exe

by zexxouflage » Tue Apr 07, 2015 6:49 pm

As the title suggests, as soon as I open wow.exe I get a wow error stating I have insufficient harddrive space. However I have over 20GB free space and I can open up any other wow.Exe file without any problems.

Any idea how to get back on wow without using said wow.exe or fixing the problem?


cheers,

Hey zexxouflage,

- Please post a screenshot of the exact error.
- Include the path that your WoW is installed to.
- If you know how than also go into Event Viewer and paste any error details that pertain to this error.
- Where did you download this installer from?

Thanks.

I got the install from the nostalrius post and it worked fine for several weeks until now.
It's located in C/Program files (x86)/ WoW Classic
put a screenshot in attachement

thx in advance

I don't understand that language but it looks like it's trying to write data to the E:\ Drive which may be full. If you reinstall than try to reinstall to C:\World of Warcraft Classic\ instead of in Program Files.
