Need two WoW (enUS + enGB) clients without over writing the other one? [Guide Inside]

[shujinko90]

Very simple, if your game is already installed and you need the second client without interfering with your current client, run your " regedit " as administrator...

Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Blizzard Entertainment > World of Warcraft

You will see 2 entries named GamePath and InstallPath - Delete them. They are left over by the current client version when installing but they are not needed after, and will hinder your chances to install a second client.

Once that's done, close your regedit and find the installer for enGB or enUS or whatever client you want to install and save it to a seperate folder than your original WoW client.

This helps for situations such as enUS alpha client being released and enGB players cannot play them.

I hope you enjoyed my guide, thanks for reading.

Or rename your current wow installation?

Or rename your current wow installation?

You may have to elaborate on this one.

Current wow installation is at lets say c:/program files/world of warcraft
Rename that to /world of warcraftx
Install new client to /world of warcraft?

It doesn't work like that, whenever I tried what you suggested in the past it caused conflictions.

This is a sure fire way of being able to have 2 clients.

Hmm ok. I have multiple clients installed atm. Different patches/zones.
