Quote:Tomorrow I plan to install Windows 7. What is the best way to migrate my WoW installation? In the past when installing a fresh copy of Windows XP I have installed WoW from the discs and then copied over my existing WoW files. There must be an easier way. Since I now have WoW on its own drive, I'm thinking I could just use the same files without doing anything else.Hi,
Am I missing something? Does any know the proper way to migrate?
I did a clean install of my Windows 7 one month ago. I also did a clean install of WoW with my Wrath of the Lich King DVD & had bnupdate bring my WoW up to date. I do it this way to insure that all files are current and not corrupt. I back up my Addon & Screenshot folder and that's it, ALL Files to include our character files are kept on the WoW server.
If you haven't set up your Blizzard account in awhile then you need to because it is different & rather nice, go to "Manage Account" at WoW. btw I did not have to use the Product key to install WoW, the version you have is now varified & kept at Blizzard. note I stopped playing WoW back in Aug 09, Bliz sent me 7 free days to play two weeks ago so I played. and now I am good to when ready
