Hello guys, I've been trying to run the game, I got in 1 time since I download it, but now it's giving me this message:
"Data/enGB/wow-update-enGB-18273.MPQ: World of Warcraft can’t make a required change to an archive file. Be sure you have write permission for the World of Warcraft folder or try running the game in administrator mode"
I did try running the game in administrator mode, but the same message keeps coming up. What do I do?
Move the hole wow installation out of the default windows file structure. The windows directories like "Program Files (x86)" have some special protection settings that prevents the changing/updating of files. I dont know your HDD organisations but i always have multiple partitions and put most software on other places than Drive/Partition c:/. Alternatively simply add a new folder "Games" on your c partition and move your complete wow directory there. To make shure you may want to just copy it for a first try and delete the source directory when you verified it works.
Wow, moving it to my other harddrive actually worked. Many thanks, friend.
