Where are Patch notes?

I am having severe difficulty navigating the new layout for this website.

I’m slightly embarrassed to ask,
Where’s the link to patch notes?

I tried to click around but cant find patch notes. I dont see a link on the launcher either (I vaguely recall there was a link to patch notes on the launcher). I used to see the patch link on a page I visually recognize, but that’s been moved all around since I last came here, and I am not seeing that same layout at all.

I haven’t updated (or looked at wow) in over a week. And it appears my addons are missing, and there is no “retail” folder, yet.
I’m very confused right now.

Hotfix notes:

Once you apply the patch, your folder structure should change to the current iteration.

This is how my folder structure appears. I have mine installed on a separate SSD drive.

\World of Warcraft\_retail_

Here is how my Addons folder is listed now:

\World of Warcraft\_retail_\Interface\AddOns

On the Blizzard Launcher, you can also navigate to the WoW tab.

To the right of the big play button, it’ll tell you the current build of your client as well as a link that says “view the patch notes.”

Just to reaffirm your suspicions.

[/quote] Thank you for the info. Unfortunately the game version and a link to patch notes don’t show on the launcher when the game is being updated. It’s been updating since before I first posted, and is about 75% done. Updating my potato laptop first, (and wanting to finish reading patch notes) before I update on my main gaming rig.

Ah, yeah, that’s understandable. They share the same locale. But it’ll be there when nothing is updating.

Finally updated.
My addons are still missing. Folder is empty. Anyone know where they went?
I was keeping them updated via TwitchApp.
I didnt keep backups, and I had a lot of custom settings.

Am I to accpet they are gone, and I have to reinstall fresh ones,
Or are they hidden somewhere? This is on Windows 10.

My Windows 7 (main gaming rig) seems to still have them. I copied them into a backup folder just in case they go missing too. I have not opened TwitchApp, nor Bnet launcher on my main gaming rig yet, and havent opened them for a week or more.

It’s possible they may still be in a separate folder also called Interface, but that one’s obsolete.

The one you want to look for is in the _retail_ folder.

I had to fuss around with the Twitch app in order to get it to point to the correct game folder.

That retail > interface > addons folder is empty. The older interface > Addon was empty before the update as well.
After I posted I remembered that I DONT remember if I readded my addons after a PC format.
Nevermind. I’m thinking too slowly today, it may have been me.
Thank you for the replies :slight_smile:
