Twitch not detecting addons

Woke up this morning to find that Twitch is not detecting WoW at all. I tried scanning / pointing to the folder but no luck. It was fine last night and I updated a handful of addons.

Anyone else experience this and know of a fix?

Mine does and updated just fine.

Not sure your issue.

Check to make sure it’s looking at retail or classic. Even without Classic installed, it defaults for me to a classic subfolder. I have to change it to retail every time i update.

I’m in the same boat, not showing WoW at all, Twitch only showing Shadowlands as not downloaded. Your issue is not alone.

Mine just stopped detecting the game. None of the four subdirectories are recognized as a supported game now.

Try Wowup . io

Really good client built around the Twitch client but without all the extra fluff. Will work past the Overwolf merger.

Actually, did Overwolf take over yet? They addon feature might have been shutoff already.

I don’t think they’re supposed to release a client until the 20th?

That would have been something unexplained and quickly done after the prepatch. Bad move.

You replied to yourself

The Overwolf client doesn’t release until the 20th, and the Twitch client is supposed to keep supporting Curseforge until some point in November.

Yeah I wanted it to be an easily noticeable addendum as my prior statement might be incorrect.

Mine did the same thing last night. After about an hour, it suddenly detected the game again when I refreshed it.

I’m trying to shift away from some addons that won’t be needed anymore. Get back to the old stuff. GL everyone with your macros.

Wait, im late to the party… so now OVERWOLF is replacing the twitch addon manager?

While it is not a solution to my problem, I am good with flagging this as the best work around. I installed the app and it instantly found all of my addons and let me update. Considering that I really don’t want anything to do with Overwolf, I will stick with this. thanks to you, good sir!

It also updates ElvUI which Twitch refused to do for some reason… so if you use that, it’s a bonus!

Good luck, HERO!

I talk to myself all the time. Sometimes you just need to speak with an adult.

Had to uninstall Twitch app and re-install it. Worked for me after that.

Is Wow.io trustworthy? As much as I don’t like Microsoft, but those MS cert does help somewhat.
