Install RikUI

RikUI 1.0.0-beta.21 is a beta addon for the released WoW Forever client.

Install from CurseForge

RikUI is on CurseForge. If you manage your WoW Forever addons with the CurseForge app, install RikUI there and the app keeps it up to date. You can also download the file from that page and install it by hand as below.

Install the ZIP

Download RikUI-v1.0.0-beta.21-forever.zip from the current release. Close WoW and extract the RikUI folder into the game's _forever_/Interface/AddOns, with RikUI.toc directly inside AddOns/RikUI. Start the game and enable RikUI in the AddOns list.

First login

Open /rik config to customize the interface. Appearance offers themes and readability choices; feature pages have enable switches and their own settings. Use /rik move to arrange frames.

Use /rik setup for the separate character wizard: role, keys, action-bar presets and modules. Review its summary before applying. See First setup.

Updates

The CurseForge app updates RikUI for you. For a manual install, close WoW and extract the newer ZIP over the RikUI folder. Your settings are kept: the game stores them outside the addon folder.

Gear sources

Gear source browsing can use a separately installed QuestieDB addon with current Forever support. Saved gear goals are preserved if that optional provider is absent.

If you used RikUI setup for Windows

Earlier betas came with a Windows setup program that prepared a quest guide and routes. The quest guide is gone and so is setup. Setup has no uninstaller, so remove what it left behind by hand:

  1. Delete its daily task. Open Task Scheduler, select Task Scheduler Library, then right-click RikUI Current Forever Updates and choose Delete. Or run schtasks /Delete /TN "RikUI Current Forever Updates" /F in Command Prompt.
  2. Type %LOCALAPPDATA%\RikUI into the File Explorer address bar and delete that folder. It holds setup's settings, its saved copies of the setup program and, unless you chose another place, its preparation files.
  3. If you chose a different Preparation folder in setup, delete the RikUI-preparation folder inside it.
  4. Close WoW. In the game's Interface/AddOns folder, delete every folder whose name starts with RikUIQuestRoads_. Then delete the RikUI folder and install RikUI again from CurseForge or the ZIP, which clears out the generated quest data. Your settings are kept.
  5. Delete Interface/RikUI-backups once RikUI is working. Setup kept its earlier installs there.
  6. Delete the RikUI-Setup.exe you downloaded.
