Cannot move or copy folder
I'm trying to patch World of Warcraft to the new 3.0.8 patch under Windows 7 x64. I get an error that says that it cannot find WoW.exe, and I remember having this problem under XP and Vista with previous patches, so I try to move my World of Warcraft folder into the Program Files (x86) folder. However, when I try, Windows tells me that the folder, or one of the many folders beneath it, are open by a process and cannot be moved. I check to see which process has it opened, and its "System," for some reason it has my Screenshots folder open.So I decide to copy the folder instead of move it. This doesn't work either; the window comes up, says its 12GB or something, but sits at "Calculating..." and, after 20 minutes, still hasn't copied anything. Is there anything I can do here? I don't see any other processes running that have my WoW folder open. Files aren't ticked as Read Only.

Hi, You can log off your account and log on it. Then copy or move the folder again. Tim Quan - MSFT
