As the title states. I know Twitch Mod area is going away and have a concern since I have WoWUp.ui for addons now.
I have both Twitch Mod WoW Addons installed as well as WoWup.ui and I want to get rid of just my Twitch WoW addons and just use WoWUp.ui. Now, out of curiosity, I deleted my Bagon addon from Twitch but still has the addon installed on WoWUp.ui. When I started the game, checked my addon the addon Bagon was deleted yet remains in WoWUp.ui.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
I manually deleted an addon, opened WoWUp and it still showed it as installed. I checked my folders, and it wasn’t there. So I just removed it from WoWUp. Could just be a bug. I’d recommend fully transitioning to WoWUp and try not to do anything manually.
So, are you trying to say, delete all of my Twitch Addons including folder and just update with WoWUP.ui? Would that solve the issue? I’m assuming so.
I believe that if you click the the “Rescan” button that WOWUP will update and will show the correct addons.
As for Twitch, it should stop supporting Addons altogether in the next few days.

Both addon services have mirrored addons. I just want WoWUP.ui as my primary while deleting all of my Twitch addons.
Would I need to delete my “SavedVariables” folder after deleting my Twitch Addons? Or keep the folder but “rescan” with WoWUP.ui and they should populate and show up in the Addon on menu when I start the game?
Just get rid of twitch both read from your addons in you wow folder.
There is no such thing as “Wowup.ai” and Twitch addons. They are the same addons from the same source stored in the same /Interface/Addons directory. The two Apps simply provide different interfaces for the same information.
Don’t want to use Twitch anymore? Delete the app, not the addons.

I use Twitch for other types of entertainment. I don’t want to get rid of the app. Just the addons…a clean slate, zero addons for WoW in Twitch. and Yes, WoWup.ui is another addon application you can use for WoW.
Twitch/Amazon sold their addon management system to another company. They will delete that section from the App before the end of the year. You should just ignore it for now.

All they really do is put the addon in the correct folder though and update them in the same place. So unless you need to get one manually just manage it with WoWup and you’ll be fine.
Understand. So, what will happen when Twitch Mod section is no longer available even though my addons will still be installed? Will my addons just disappear or will WoWup.ui still keep them updated?
Absolutely nothing will happen to your installed addons when the Twitch app is updated.
WOWUP will continue to operate as it is today.

Yeap, that’s what I currently do already! I barely touch my twitch addons to update anything. However, today, I saw 3 addons that needed updates via Twitch addons, yet, my WoWup,ui mods we’re all “up to date”.
Well, that’s good! Thanks!
wowup reads your addon folder. If you had both active at the same time it’s likely that one doesn’t allow any deletion. Just dump twitch entirely.
I just switched and all my addon were listed fine on WOWUP. it’s an easy change
Edit: Forgot to say that I also think you’ll like it more than twitch like I do.

i uninstalled the twitch client and installed wowup. after scanning for games and folders, i ran it then checked for updates, including the client. i ran into a problem with some addons acting up too; what i did was uninstalled those addons and reinstalled using the wowup client. that seemed to fix things now and is running fine.

Just click where circled and it will scan your addons and let you know which ones need to be updated.

Will do, in the process in changing everthing over, so far so good with my addons installed in WoWUp.ui and deleted Twitch.

I deleted twitch. Wowup seems to be doing the job just fine.
