Hey dumbley,

Try disabling all addons and deleting the WTF/WDB folders. If WoW is installed in Program Files then you need delete the WTF/WDB folders here:
Code: Select all
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic


You could also try reinstalling to a new folder such as C:\WoW

Another user had a similar issue where he couldn't enter a specific area of Silverpine Forest without the game crashing; weird this is, it only crashed for one particular character of his. His other characters could enter it just fine. Turned out to be file corruption in his WoW installation folder. If Snow240's advice doesn't work, you could always try uninstalling your 1.12.1 WoW client, deleting all the loose files if any remain after the uninstall, and reinstalling it again.
