UI wont show

Well ive done everything i could, i cant find antoher WOW folder or anything. at first i started followed the directions, renamed the WTF folders and all that jazz. but no matter what, my old UI would always show up. as i said i couldnt find another wow or anything that id have to delete. i do use curse client which i reinstalled (it had all my addons on it) and i uninstalled each and every one. then i installed the UI again replacing the folders, and renaming. i log on and its just the default UI theres no addons tab or anything so i can click load out of date addons or anything, theres just nothing there... what am i missing? is there some weird spot another wow could be? HELP ME i WANT LUI REALLY BAD!

1) make sure to disable "sync addons" in the curse client, otherwise youll magically see all your old addons appearing again.

2) make sure that when installing a new UI you have the correct folder structure ^^

so:

WTF > account > etc.
Interface > Addons > (a list with all addons)

the WTF and Interface folder go in the same directory as your launcher.exe and wow.exe are.

3) if you want to know wich wow folder curse is maintaining for you, look into the options/add game part to see which game is located where. What ive seen in curse, and i gotta love it ^^, is that when i copy my main wow folder to another spot, its auto-magically detected by curse again, showing me 2 different World Of Warcrafts in the list of games ^^.

if no addon button pops up in the character selection screen, double check if the addons are in the correct directory.

if an addon button pops up in the character select screen but you see no addons when you log in, make sure to enable "load out of date addons"

hope this helps

then ofc most of my reply wouldnt work :P

just do a search for wow.exe or one of the other files thats always inside the wow folder, and if the search only gives 1 result, you have only 1 client folder on your computer. If it gives more than 1, make sure you load the client in wich you are trying to get the UI to show up.

Might be you have 2 client folders, and one in wich your having the addons installed for the new UI, while you are loading the other one.

Happened to me a few times too ^^, have a shortcut in my taskbar to launch wow (with a good and perfect working UI), but sometimes im trying out new UI's and when im doing that i make a new folder for it ^^. When loading with the icon in the taskbar, i load the wrong client

do you try to login with your emailadress asociated with the battle.net account? or are you trying to login with your old username?

if all settings are back to default, what i normally do to avoid any hassle getting things back right, i throw back in my backup of the config.wtf file ^^ all settings and such are the way i want withouth having to set all up again.

If this helps you with the account looggin issue i donīt know.
Make a E-mail adress ex. Hotmail,com then make account on battle.net
and fill alll the stuff they want to know.( Remember thay are Harda--es when it commes to fake or real/half info on stuff, Maby next time you got to tell them your shoe size to.

For example if your name are Rickard you canīt just type Rick as a name.) Then just answer the mail by just klick on the link they send you. And if you donīt get a E-mail from them it might end up in junk mail or E-mail site blocks it, then you have to go to settings on your E-mail ( Hotmail.com) account.

And after that just type your Hotmail adress in the accountname on the wow loggin site and the password you gave battle.net.
And if you want to change the E-mail adress for your Battle.net back to the one you want it on, well that can in some cases take a lot of time so just make a temporary E-mail first.

Hope thats helps!

at this point, your account is your biggest issue, not your ad-dons, unfortunately.

the only recourse is to contact Blizzard support via web chat/email/phone, as anyone here is not qualified to fix your situation.

www.worldofwarcraft.com has all the info to contact them.

sorry for your troubles, and good luck!

im sure ppl will still help you with addons when your WoW is working again.

So you been playing while the new rule about the
needed battle.net for w.o.w.
to explain this a bit further, have you been
playing w.o.w in the last 2 month.

If not, the battle.net is not completed
It says it alredy in use
(but it still not totally completed, so you can make a new one )
just make a new E-mail, The Hotmail accept
Battle.net mails. Then make a new account on
Battle.net.

And then later take up the
chit chat with battle.net about changing
it back to the one you want it on.
