Copied World of Warcraft from another machine to save time and now you can’t update? Here’s a fix…

World of Warcraft is a beast to install alone, patching it up to the latest version is another story.

Well fear no more, the fix is easy and takes about two seconds. Go into your World of Warcraft folder and double-click repair.exe. When it opens, select reset only. Re-launch World of Warcraft and your patch should go off without a hitch.
