My downloads are going to the interface/addon folder.
Add on window pops up, but none of the add ons are there?
Vista automatically unzips the files.
Any suggestions?

I tryed to download Omen but it says 'Failed to connect to previous instance
What do I do now? :P

the only file i can find to do with wow is C:\World of Warcraft.temp is that the right 1?

Okay, I've got a backwards question. I had my friend who got me into the game download some addons, and he first go them from a different site. He now is no longer communicating with me over a stupid communcation problem we had, so I'm trying to fix all my out of date Addon problems, and remove at less one addon, that I hate. I was wondering, if I want to clear all my addons, is there any folders in the addon folder I need to keep that Blizzard put in there. I am also keeping Auctioneer, so I don't lose all the previous AH scans I have.

If it's at all any help this is a list of all the folders I have in my addon folder, I don't which one goes with which one. (Which is why I'm trying to start over from almost scratch, so I know what's going on). The folder names are:

!Swatter
Auc-Advanced
Auc-Filter-Basic
Auc-ScanData
Auc-Stat-Classic
Auc-Stat-Purchased
Auc-Stat-Simple
Auc-Stat-StdDev
Aucstioneer
backups
BeanCounter
Blizzard_AuctionUI
Blizzard_BattlefieldMinimap
Bliazzard_BindingUI
Blizzard_CombatLog
Blizzard_CombatText
Blizzard_CraftUI
Blizzard_GMSurveyUI

Blizzard_RaidUI
Blizzard_TalentUI
Blizzard_TradeSkillUI
Blizzard_TrainerUI

DHUD2
Enchantrix
enchantrix-barker
EnhTooltip
Informant
QuestHelper
Stubby

ok where is the WoW folder at?

i dont have the button on my charachter screen. i did everything.. what do i do?

Handfulamistakes - You can safely delete all but the ones starting with blizzard and this will get rid of your current mods, even delete the auctioneer folders as your saved data is saved in another folder called WTF
JarheadLMartin - Your WOW folder should be where you installed the game, do a search on the hard drive for wow.exe as this file will be in your wow folder.
Vamare - If you dont have the addon button on your screen you havent installed the mods correctly, this is normally because you have either unzipped the addon folder to far or not far enough, when looking at the :programs/worldofwarcraft/interface.addons folder you should see folders for each addon (some have more than one folder), when opening each of these folders you should see files, if you are seeing files in your addon folder you have unzipped ur addons to far, if you are opening each addon folder and seeing another folder(s) with no files until you open this one you have not unzipped the addons far enough

that is very good how to explanation i like this manual installation process its easy and give u full control on your addons. thanks man

i only got one addon to download the rest say unably to download due to former instance WTF does that mean an how can i keep downloading more?!?!?!??? please help me =(

HI Does anyone know if this addons work with windows VISTA thanks....I have installed as per directions but notihng is happening i was wondering if thats because i am running windows VIsta.

How do i remove addons?

I need 2 get group calendar add on i cant download it keeps telling me unable to download because of previous instance (00000000)

I have exactly this problem.

Have had to switch to my sons pc as my laptop died, and he had no Interface or AddOns folder.

Am not a noob and have used add ons successfully for last two years.

I have created these manually, tried to install downloads both via Zip and manually, the directory reads great, all in the right place, right level of folders etc, but when I log in to WoW, there is no AddOns button showing on the start screen and no add ons in the game?

I have tried the Blizzard repair tool and it can find nothing wrong with my install (even though it is obviously missing the Blizzard add ons - go figure) so don't have a clue.

Am finding it really hard to raid without add ons and could really do with some help.

ooops
This was in reply to Vamare who had no Add On button on the WoW log in screen
