As the title explains, I am attempting to share my World of Warcraft file somehow from my Windows 7 laptop to my new Windows 8 desktop (Windows 8.1 if it matters).
I've tried several things online and none of it worked for me. I attempted to make a homegroup after seeing people say that Win7 and Win8 can be in the same homegroup, but it wouldn't comply and also specifically said "Users must be operating Windows 7 to access this homegroup".
I've also shared the WoW folder and I was able to see it on my desktop, but it originally was giving me an error message saying I did not have permission to access it (even though under advance sharing I gave "everyone" full privelage). Then, without tinkering, it let me in and I am copying the folder to my desktop, however, the copy is taking just as long as normally downloading it would. Is there a faster, more efficient method of doing this?
Thanks for the help
