I just became aware that CurseForge has a standalone installer that doesn’t require Overwolf. I want to switch to the standalone. If I delete Curseforge/Overwolf, then install the Curseforge standalone, will I have to reinstall all my addons? I currently have 80 addons and it would be a PIA to reinstall them all let alone adjust all the settings again.
The curseforge version does have ads as per the curseforge forced API terms they implemented a while back. You may have downloaded the incorrect version if you want your addons to come from curseforge. Otherwise the regular version doesn’t use curseforge at all. It uses alternative addon websites.
Yeah, just figured that out. Google Gemini said it had no ads. I got excited. But, soon saw that it does have ads with the CurseForge version. It’s okay though. I overall like it so far.
I went to the CurseForge website and clicked ‘Get CurseForge App’. You’ll be offered two download options. One for the bloatware version and one for the standalone version.
Take a look at WowUp though. I took the advice from Trustlvlfour and switched to WowUp last night.
