"ForceTaint_Strong" error using Bliz Action Bars

Hello,

Every day all day I get this error when using ActionBar 1, button #2:

“ForceTaint_Strong” has been blocked from an action only available to the Blizzard UI. You can disable this addon and reload the UI"

This is ONLY occuring when I sometimes press ActionBar 1, Button #2. I do not have any UI addon which are changing the actionbars, and I’m using the Blizzard base UI. Using bugGrabber this is what I get:

3x [ADDON_ACTION_FORBIDDEN] AddOn ‘*** ForceTaint_Strong ***’ tried to call the protected function ‘UseAction()’.
[string “@!BugGrabber/BugGrabber.lua”]:480: in function <!BugGrabber/BugGrabber.lua:480>
[string “=[C]”]: in function UseAction' [string "@FrameXML/SecureTemplates.lua"]:364: in function handler’
[string “@FrameXML/SecureTemplates.lua”]:690: in function <FrameXML/SecureTemplates.lua:672>
[string “@FrameXML/SecureTemplates.lua”]:704: in function <FrameXML/SecureTemplates.lua:697>
[string “@FrameXML/SecureTemplates.lua”]:746: in function SecureActionButton_OnClick' [string "@FrameXML/ActionButton.lua"]:109: in function TryUseActionButton’
[string “@FrameXML/ActionButton.lua”]:157: in function `ActionButtonUp’
[string “ACTIONBUTTON2”]:4: in function <[string “ACTIONBUTTON2”]:1>

Any idea on how to fix this? This doesn’t appear to come from any addon and only when I press #2 button on Bar 1. Thank you.

Hey there Traphammer,

Thanks for reporting this! LUA errors such as this are caused by a conflicting addon or overlay, so first try resetting your User Interface.

Note: This process will return your game client to the default interface in order to rebuild core game files. If you wish to keep any addons you play with, I recommend moving the ‘Interface’ folder to your desktop temporarily (the Interface folder from Step 6). Once you have completed the UI reset, you can then go in and move your addons over to the new ‘Interface’ folder one at a time to see if it was causing the issue.

If the problem persists after resetting the UI, an addon or macro may have changed a console variable. Reset this by typing the following command into your in-game chat box and pressing enter. You may receive a permission error, but the command will still work.

/console cvar_default

Hopefully this does the trick. Cheers!

Thank you!..the UI reset appears to have fixed the issue and I haven’t had any errors all day today.
