i really want to look forward to patch day. but i'm worried what happened a few patches ago. it wouldn't applied patch. said that i needed to repair. after going through repair tools, it asked me to reinstall.

it happened again.

i looked at the initial popup screen from updater for a long time, thinking if i should hit the repair button.

i did.

after it's almost done, it said the data to repair is too large and asked me to reinstall.

my friend suggested me replacing my wow files with the husband's. i was going to reinstall anyway.

just copied Data folder and all the files except update files over.

it worked! i saw the new snowy login screen. i could login!

just loosing the settings and addons. questing notes. mines and herbs on map. oh well, it's better than reinstalling.
