Hi, I was wondering is there a way to transfer the entire retail WoW as the title suggests?
Hello there Felsahrin!
While you can transfer the World of Warcraft data by drag-and-dropping (Or copy-pasting) the WoW folder from your HDD to your SD, we don’t really fully recommend this as issues may arise. The tried-and-true method of uninstalling the game and reinstalling it in your new drive would be the best way to proceed.
Despite what the blue said…
You literally can drag and drop your installation folder to any drive that you want, just remember to update its installation path in the battlenet launcher app. (Settings->Game Settings->choose the game you want->edit installation path)
Wow makes no registry keys, so you can drag and drop it anywhere you want.
Reinstalling it as per the very strange advice given by the obviously new to the job, Blue poster, would mean redownloading 70+ gigabytes.
Dodcoszmau: Please stop giving out bad advice. Srsly. Never thought I’d have to actually say that to an actual blue poster.
