The World of Warcraft updating system is a standalone application that automates the task of keeping your add-ons current.
The scripting system in WoW is under constant modification to help add-on writers; unfortunately this does result in add-ons breaking quite often and requires them to be updated - a very time-consuming effort if you have more than a few installed.
WoWus will help alleviate the pains of keeping your installation in workable order.
Here are some key features of "WoWus":
Automated Scanning & Downloading
Once WoWus is up and running, simply click on the List Updates button to begin. WoWus will then scan your World of Warcraft installation for add-ons and compare them with the WoWus.m6.net database to see which ones require updating. If an update is found, it is added to the add-ons list ready for you to choose to download. Clicking on the Get Updates button will prompt WoWus to automatically download the selected add-ons to your computer ready for installation.
Automated Backup & Installation
When the required updates have been downloaded, you are asked if you would like them installed. Continuing with the installation will cause WoWus to first back-up the add-ons to be updated (should you want to roll-back the update for any reason) and then install them into the required location. Warcraft can now be launched and the add-on will be ready to be used!
Add-On Management
As well as providing access to the backed-up add-ons, the Management area also provides functionality for interacting with your currently installed add-ons using an interface similar to the one utilised in the Backup area.
Add-Ons Database
WoWus makes use of a continually updated online database of the latest most popular add-ons available for World of Warcraft. This ensures that you have the most up-to-date installations of your favourites without the fuss of locating and comparing versions.
Backup & Restore
WoWus can back-up game settings, add-ons, item cache, and logs in a World of Warcraft installation for restoration at a later date.
Tweaks and Fixes
The Management area of WoWus also features tools that allow you to comfortably tweak hidden World of Warcraft settings using an easy-to-use interface and to fix common problems with the game.
Last, but Certainly Not Least ...
WoWus updates any add-ons and isn't tied to a particular website; the reason for this is that WoWus was created by someone (that's me - hi!) that does not run an add-on site; therefore, the add-on updater isn't part of a hidden agenda to farm users and extract money from them on a monthly basis via a subscription model or otherwise. For example.
