I had this problem and I have vista home basic.
What I did was a) Make sure that if you installed with a disk, that the disk is not in the computer anymore
and b) that user account control is turned OFF
Otherwise the computer tells you you can't do that.
And maybe double check the apps and processes in the task manager to make sure WoW isn't running any background stuff anymore. That should clear you up. It did for me

If I recall correctly, you can disable UAC from the User Accounts control panel option.

Check that you´re on patch version 2.4.3
If not, that could be your problem.
