Patch installers

Do you need all of those patch installers in you WoW folder in program files?


Click here

all the stuff in the red box are patch installers, they take up almost half a gig in space.

I wanted to know if anyone knew if we need them to play the game, if we don't I can delete them and get back half a gig of hard disk space.

thanks for any advice.

Quite safe to ditch them.

I burn them to a dvd and hang on to them, for ease of re-installing and stuff.

k, thanks for the help.

I wrote all the files to a cd just in case WoW doesn't work right after.

You might need the 2.x patches incase you decide to reinstall WoW but you definately don't need the any pre 2.0 patches as they are included in the BC installation.
But none are needed for playing.
