changed the wtf and interface folders to be writable but they still don't save...

This will allow your files to be in their proper locations and you can choose at that point where to install WoW to (such as C:\Program Files). After you've got WoW installed, launch it once. Then, put your WTF/interface/screenshots folders back (and you can backup the clean versions if you want). Everything should be back to normal at that point.
what does everyone else think of this? it seems liek the most straightforward approach.. kinda leaning on this.
