Simple Computer Help - NERDS GATHER! Help

Don't make me go to the library and kidnap some comp geeks people, help me!

So I download addons for WoW, titan for example, and it goes to its own folder.

I try to drag them to the addon folder, (which worked for a different mod I downloaded... and dragged into addons) but this time I get this message.

If I just click OK it puts it as a .rar file again, one I have to unzip, and doesn't show up in-game for the WoW addons

EDIT -------------------------------------------------------

So I guess I dragged it in, clicked okay, it RE-ZIPPED, then I dragged the individual folders from the zip folder AFTER it was already in the addons folder, copied and pasted it, and it worked... although i should be able to just drag it right away

extact, go to extracted folder then move them. it looks like you are trying to drag them from the rar file itself.

Just highlight all those folders and drag them to your desktop or somewhere else. Then put them wherever you want.
