Is WoW supposed to be 131 GB?

Community General Discussion

My Wow folder is 131 GB, I have a few addons but it seems huge. My screenshot folder is empty.

Is this normal or should I reinstall ?

2

Mine is only 85gig

That’s about the size of mine, with only retail. Maybe if you play classic it’s bigger?

I’ve got classic and LK classic installed as well. Not sure if BC classic auto installs. Weird.

All I found is

"Solid State Drive (SSD) 100GB available space Or Hard Disk Drive (HDD) 100GB available space (depending on the performance of the drive, player experience may be impacted on HDD"

But then it says...(11 months ago)

Note: Due to potential changes, the System Requirements for this game may change over time

Classic throughout classic and tbcc only added like 6 gb.

OP has a corrupted install with essentially 2x data volume. Or they somehow are not looking in the logs folder.

My data folder is 100GB, I have retail and classic installed.

Beta, PTR, retail, LK installed, and I’m at 99.6 GB.

I suspect OP needs to clean out their combat logs folder.

109 gb and I’ve got a pretty unreal amount of screenshots, PTR, alpha, classic, etc.

13

Mine is only 86gb and I have the PTR, Classic, and WoW installed. Not really bad considering that’s like 3 games. And I use like 70 addons.

14

My folder says 74.2 - but I have nothing installed except retail version of WoW. No addons or screen shots or anything.

15

My retail folder is 74.9GB. I have retail on the SSD, WOTLK on the HD - that folder is 92.4 GB. Makes no sense though, I also have Beta installed, unsure where the Data file for that one is.

16

76 gb for me.

still too much imo. most of it has got to be zones i never go to :wink:

a lot of it has got to be collecting dust never getting loaded.

TBC is now WOTLK. Classic was less then 13gb and I don’t remember TBC

In fact my log folder is nearly empty, my data folder is 95% of the size, standing at 121 gig on 131 total
