Navigate to the Retail folder and copy/paste the WTF folder somewhere safe. The steps for both are pretty much identical so although this guide will be for Retail feel free to reference it for Classic as well. ( By default it's: Windows (C:) > Program Files (x86) > World of Warcraft) It's here that you'll see two folders, one for Retail and one for Classic. This is where all your custom settings for your addons is stored. So if you'd like to know how to manually install an addon to avoid having to deal w/ this then read on:įirst things first is to create a backup of your WTF folder. If you use it and enjoy it great however, some people have expressed concerns about aggressive advertising practices and security flaws that make them hesitant to install it. I'm not here to defend or vilify Overwolf one way or another. With the recent news of Curseforge leaving Twitch (and thus the Twitch addon manager) and joining Overwolf many have become concerned about the future of their addons.
