Bug with inspect

Tinùviél's picture

Lo all a lot of people, me too, wondered why inspecting others ingame result in nothing to show, the inspect window doesn't show up at all.
Asking i've been told it's an issue related to the talent tree changes and also wowarmory isn't working properly at all and won't be fixed until cata release.
Today i surfed the EU forum and wasn't able to find any info while on US i found something more clear, it's actually a bug that has been caused from the patch but it's solvable.

So anyone experiencing this can just execute a full UI reset, these are the steps:

everyone:
1) Go to your wow folder.
2) Rename WTF and Interface folder (i.e WTF_old and Interface_old).
3) Delete CACHE folder.

Vista/7 users:
1bis) Go to your virtual store.
2bis) Delete CACHE folder.

everyone again:
Run warcraft right clicking Launcher.exe "Run as administrator" where appliable otherwise just run it.

enter wow and enjoy the inspect funtion restored.

now the sad part.... mess up again reinstalling addons and custom interfaces.....

Cheers
Alex

Following those steps will make your whole interface reset... so be warned.

I don't have any inspect problems... But I got a butotn on my keyboard called 'Inspect' which automatically uses the command /inspect ingame. So might be that the command still works, but the clicking funtion is bugged.

Deleting Cache folder or just the stuff contained in it (wiv warcraft closed) it's absolutely the same. Just if you delete the folder, the game will recreate it automatically.
Inspect bug is probably related to some addon setting affecting wow behaviour, i noticed that after resetting complitely my UI it started working, then i reinstalled my addon, and designed a spartan temporary interface because that evening i was active in raid and didn't had too much time to spend on redoing my UI.
After reinstalling all addons the inspect was again buggy like, now it show.. then not.. maybe now... later if you say please... i got sick of having something working only half times so i restored my original ui, and lost complitely again the inspect funtion.
Will try to figure out what's the buggy addon on weekend with moar time avail.
