You can find below the screen of wow error, also the task manager from the time of error and setting of LAA. When I try to lower the camera distance and reduce all the game effects and other setting to minimum, I can survive in Dala more than 10 minutes. But I dont want to play with this low setting, if there is other option how to fix this issue and I am sure that there must be another option. Is it possible that the LAA is not working when there False status? Can I change it somehow? Thank you for all your help! :)

That's very weird.
First, with LAA applied, this shouldn't happen at all.
Second, an unmodified client shouldn't need LAA to work correctly.
Have you tried downloading the client again?

Yes, but I downloaded it again from Warmane link. Do you think this could be an issue? Do you have any other link that I could try?

LAA isn't installed properly. It should say LAA True on your WoW.exe
Select the wow.exe path, and click the "Switch Large Address Aware. It should show WoW.exe LAA True afterwards.
Once you've done that, report back if it works or not.

Great, this is really helpful. So it could be the problem. I am not sure if I am doing something wrong, but I am not able to turn LAA to True. I only managed to turn Original to true. And when I click to Force / Switch LAA - nothing happens. Any idea what can be wrong? (I just tried to download it again, extract the file from Zip and start .exe file)

It's known error - you can have a lot of free memory (RAM), but wow can't use it...
I am using this program:
https://ntcore.com/files/4gb_patch.zip
It do the same thing as "Large Address Aware".
Just open it and use it on wow.exe once and no more errors
Hope this helps

I am sorry for my late response, but I was really busy in work. I just tried this 4gb patch program, but when I open it and try to add wow.exe file there I only see notification: Couldn´t open executable! Any idea how to fix it? Thank you very much.

Either you have the game running, or the bittorrent client running, or the exe file is marked as read only (right click -> properties)

This was helpful, because I had wow.exe as read only. After changed it 4gb patch worked. But when I moved to Dala with my char I again got wow error - not enough memory. (tbh I had video setting - ultra - do you think I still need to lower my setting). Thank you for all your help.

Can you download the client all over again? A corrupt mpq file could cause something like this.

I already tried it a month ago. But I can definetely try that again :)

the default setting for windows 10 and windows 11 run wow just fine. You don't have to go into or change anything with compatibility mode.
It'll be better to find the root cause of the issue instead of trying random things to see if one sticks, as doing it that way could actually mask the problem or make things worse.
Make sure you have direct X 9 installed
Yes I am aware that Modern Windows has the latter version and should play games but it's using a compatibility layer which could cause problems for some systems. Just download the native DX9 runtime and use it to prevent that issue.

I would re download the client. Choose the OLD, NO WoD SKINS option as it's better on resources and much less likely to have issues

Enable LAA (this is only to be done IF using windows 7, 8, 10, or 11 64 BIT ONLY and I recommend having 8gb of ram or more if using this.

Next step, log in and use this command in game
"/console timingmethod 1"
Turn on vsync (for testing purposes the next part)
Restart your game.
If all is well then proceed below to the addons section. If you notice that the vsync value seems odds compared to your monmitor refresh rate, change the 1 to a 2 and restart your game. If neither work change back to a 0 and Restart.
After this step you can turn Vsync back off.
Try it WITHOUT ADDONS for a bit to see if it's stable then add your addons ONE AT A TIME until you get your UI setup. Redownload your addons and do a fresh install of them. DO NOT COPY OVER YOUR WTF FOLDER. set up your addons and UI from scratch and then make a backup after everything is confirmed working.
If you start having problems during this step then it's an addon causing the issues.
