Update: I went ahead and renamed the WTF, Interface, and the Cache folders and got another error. This seems to happen when exiting a dungeon or on a boss in a dungeon.

I went and renamed the WTF, Cache, and Interface folders, this is what happened… Happens when I exit a dungeon or get to the final boss.

Have you, by chance, disabled your paging file? Do keep in mind that it’s responsible for a lot more than just augmenting your system memory - it also holds (as sparse storage) memory which has been requested but not used. If you disable the paging file, everything can come crashing down very quickly with memory errors (and some things can fail to work entirely due to a dependence on it).

Unless you have a specific need to do so, just let Windows manage the paging file; or at least only restrict which drive/s it can use. The last time applying manual settings offered any meaningful benefit was Windows ME. *ed: This even includes systems with ludicrous amounts of RAM (64GB+).

5

You mean manually setting permissions and such?

6

Not permissions, no. I mean the setting found under the advanced performance options of the system control panel. If you’re not sure where that is there’s a good chance you haven’t done anything to it, but just in case (and bear with me, because it’s a tedious journey in Win10):

  • Right click on the Start button (or hit Win+X) and select System
  • On the upper right of this dialogue, select System info
  • On the left of this dialogue, select Advanced system settings
  • Hit the Settings button in the Performance section
  • Select the Advanced tab
  • Hit the Change button

All going well, you should see a new window now labelled Virtual Memory. If the checkbox at the top is ticked you don’t need to do anything and can close up the mess of windows you just opened since this isn’t the problem. If it is not ticked, check the list of drives below it, making sure at least one of them is set to System managed. Again, if at least one is set appropriately than you can close out the new mess of windows.

If none of the drives are system managed, pick one (if you have more than one, pick your “scratch” or “temporary” drive if you have one, or your primary drive if you’re unsure) and set it to System managed. Manually setting the size, including disabling it entirely, is only advised if you know exactly what you’re doing and why.

You know what? I did do manage to do that. I changed it back and I’ve restarted my computer and am giving WoW a go hoping for a different result this time.
