the EnableAddons.exe in the first post does not work on the latest build, it just says it failed and to press any key to continue.
i wasnt sure if it was for older versions only, but it said it would patch any open wow.exe.
im using the 32bit wow.exe.
thanks to everyone who helps get the addons working, bare bones wow is annoying to say the least.
P.S.
this post was made before RENgOLD posted a patched exe for the latest build.
