Difference between revisions of "Wizard101"

From PCGamingWiki, the wiki about fixing PC games
(I'm a long time fan of the game, I made contributions based on what I know. Also, just wondering, any game can have controller support with a free program called AntiMicro, I was wondering if there could be an article written about that.)

Notes

  1. When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
  2. 2.0 2.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/799960/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (799960) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
