So first it downloads the 'Downloader" from battlement. Anyways I downloaded RoC and have been working with that. Thank you for the reply! I contacted Blizzard about getting a replacement CD key because I have an old picture with my email displayed by the CD keys and an old customer service conversation mentioned as long as I have proof they wouldn't make me buy any new keys.

When I tried installing RoC through the downloaded installer it opens up frozen throne somehow.no place to input cd keys but says its installed ![]() Registered my almost 11 year old RoC key, my old TFT key must have been taken by a friend I found the C drive and program files in package contents but when moving warcraft inside program files I can't open it and if I don't put it in there and open RoC it just opens up As far as I know (which apparently might not be much) OS X doesn't have a C drive?Īny help would be appreciated!
