Can't instal any AddOns

Hello everyone,

I'm searching for a solution to my problem regarding installing add ons on Nostalrius.

I downloaded the game from the official website of Nostalrius. Even desinstalled it and reinstalled it today.

There is no addons folder in my Interface file. So I tried to create one named "AddOns" as it should be.
But at the moment I unzip add ons in the file there is an error message telling me it can't find a way to acces.

I'd like to know if anyone else has experienced this and knows what to do.

Hello Carotte,

If you are on Windows, have you tried "Run as administrator..." on the WoW.exe? This may create the necessary folders such as ../Interface/AddOns and ../WDB/. As for the error message, can you supply a screenshot of it?

Regards,
GM Eurie

Are you unzipping a file containing add-ons directly into the World of Warcraft Classic\Interface\AddOns folder? If so, try unzipping it elsewhere in a different folder on your PC and then manually copy/paste them into the World of Warcraft Classic\Interface\AddOns folder. Depending on where your 1.12.1 WoW client is installed to and your PC's security settings, you might not be able to unzip files into specific folders.
