You are not entering the right folder's name.
It is not 
Code:
/Desktop/wowinstall

 but I think 
Code:
~/Desktop/wowinstall


The first one tries to find a folder named Desktop on the root of the system, the second one tries to find a folder named Desktop in your home user.

Note that the "Desktop" folder may have different names depending on your distribution and language.

The command look like:

Code:
sudo chown -R username:username ~/Desktop/wowinstall


Replace 'username' by your user name

You can also try to cd in the folder containing the folder wowinstall and running from there :

Code:
sudo chown -R username:username wowinstall
