Most of the addons for World of Warcraft we download from curseforge.com. The easiest way to install the addon is with Twitch App (previously Curse Client). The app is for computers and WoW laptops with Windows and MacOS operating systems. Very easy to use.
But there are many addons, not included in Curse repository, not being able to install via the App automatically. Or maybe you don’t want to use the Twitch App at all. You can install them manually, this is why I wrote this guide to help you out.
Jan 08, 2021 Simply download the addon, extract it from the ZIP file and drop it into the Addons folder located in your World of Warcraft installation, which you should find at World of Warcraft/retail.
First of all, you need to exit WoW. This is because all the addons are loaded after you login to your account.
Download the Addon
Let’s say we want to install Deadly Boss Mods (DBM), the most popular addon for dungeons and raids. We go to https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons and download it.
Then the download window pops up asking if you want to open the file or save it. Let’s just save it on the desktop.
Next, you need to extract the .zip file. It can be open without any program within Windows. Although I prefer using 7-Zip software for all the archive types including .zip. If you are on a Mac, just double click and it will extract automatically.
The last thing you need to do is to copy into the WoW Addons folder.
In Windows, by default, it is located here:
…and on a Mac:
Now we just need to copy the content of the archive into the AddOns folder. In this example, there are many folders starting with DBM. We move or copy all the folders directly inside AddOns folder:
That’s it.

Next time you launch World of Warcraft there is a button AddOns in the lower left corner of character selection screen. If you click it opens a window with all the addons loaded.

The most popular addon for tracking World Quests in the MMORPG World of Warcraft from the Legion expansion and onward
Note: the addon can also be installed and automatically updated through the dedicated Twitch Desktop App
World Quest Tracker is the most popular addon for tracking World Quests in the MMORPG World of Warcraft from the Legion expansion and onward.
When World of Warcraft first released the Legion expansion along with the subsequent new areas, the Broken Isles, they introduced a feature called 'World Quests.'These quests lie somewhere between daily quests, in that they are repeatable, yet they don't have the same 24-hour cooldown as Dailies do.
Since these quests offer a wide variety of rewards, ranging from high amounts of gold to epic equipment and other quirks depending on what expansion we are talking about, it is no wonder that a lot of players looked for a way to maximize the gains they have from these World Quests.
As such, a lightweight WoW addon came into existence with one sole purpose: to help you track down World Quests, both when they appear, as well as your progression on those your are currently doing.
As far as resource consumption goes, this addon eats up less than the more elaborate Quest Tracker addon as the areas it covers are far more limited.
As far as Legion and BfA players are concerned, this addon is a must-have if you're level cap and farming your way for pre-raid progression.
