    Zygor not launching WoW

    Hello all, I am having troubles getting zygor started. This hasnt happened before so I dont know whats going on. Zygor boots up fine, but once i press play, before it told me wow crashed and needs to close, now its telling me that the wow installation is damaged. It also does not put any files into my WoW folder like it is supposed to. And yes, the destinations to the wow folder are correct. I have tried the following to fix these problems;
    PC restart
    repair WoW
    repair Zygor
    uninstall/reinstall wow and zygor
    run zygor as admin
    all to no avail. if anybody has any answers to this that would be great. thank you.

    It sounds like something isn't set right for directories like you might have 2 game installations. Open up your battle.net launcher and click on Options (just below the word Games) and then select Game Settings. Now on the new window that opens up click on Game Install/Update on the left and let me know what it shows for the WoW folder setting (not the default install directory setting, I need the folder used for game play).

      Alright I tried installing WoW in a different directory, thats why it says its going to "New Folder". Here's the image.

        Ok, open the Zygor updater client and click the gear icon in the bottom right. Now click on Game Installation on the left side and you'll see WoW and ESO listed. To the right side of the WoW entry you will see a wrench and trash can icon. Click on the wrench icon and that will open a small window. You should now see 3 folder settings for WoW with magnifying glass icons beside them. Use the magnifying glass icons to make the settings the following.


        Installation Directory:
        C:\New folder\World of Warcraft


        Executable:
        C:\New folder\World of Warcraft\World of Warcraft Launcher.exe


        AddOns Directory:
        C:\New folder\World of Warcraft\Interface\Addons


        Once that's done you can use the back arrow at the bottom right to go back to the main window and then you can do a reinstall with the wrench to get them installed. That should get it all fixed and working.

          I regret to inform you that it still does not work.

            Can you post a screen shot of the 3 directories that are set in the client?

              Here are the directories for Zygor
              EDIT: I just restarted my PC and there was a minor update. Now Zygor won't even launch or reinstall.

              EDIT 2: Got it to run. Uninstalled this new antivirus I was trying out. Also during the PC update, it removed java for some reason thats why Zygor wasn't launching. Thanks for your help!
