Now the add on button seems to be back...The only thing is I ran the repair.exe and seem to have 2 WTF and 2 INTERFACES now, (specifically INTERFACE, + Interface.20091028-190356 and WTF, + WTF.20091028-190356)....

Another issue that seems to have improved with the full patched install is that about 50 percent of the time I was getting the error#132 when loading the game. That seems to be resolved now....

Being a noobie, I read a number of the posts here and a few other places re addons like Carbonite, QuestHelper, etc...Opinion seems to be divided about whether they are legal or not! Although the consensus of opinion is that noone seems to have been banned for using QuestHelper. I would be interested in your own views?

QuestGuru (doesn't seem to show up as an add on for some reason) yet Quest Helper does. Do you know if it is meant to? I think I read somewhere that using both QuestHelper and Carbonite at the same time is not a good idea...Sorry if these questions seem trivial, but my knowledge is so limited....

You have all been a great help and it is very much appreciated. Have a good evening....Howard
Any time you run the repair tool, it will backup your Interface and WTF folders and add dates to the folder names. This way you do not lose your settings or your addons if/when repairs are made.

Carbonite and QuestHelper are both legitimate addons. They are not illegal to use. Anything that you find here on WoWInterface (which is an official Fansite listed at the World of Warcraft web site) is legal to use within the game.

As for QuestGuru, you more than likely have it installed wrong... folder within a folder or in the wrong folder altogether.

Wrong
E:\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\QuestGuru1.2

Right
E:\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\QuestGuru
E:\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\QuestGuru_History
E:\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\QuestGuru_History1

etcetera
