Need Help with Tooltips!

So many years ago I removed the tooltips from the game (after “Hide Tooltips” was removed from the Interface options)- I found a guide on how to remove it from the game files. After breaking from WoW for large portions of WoD and Legion, I decided I wanted to turn them back on, but I have never been able to find a guide again on what I need to change in the files to re-enable them. Reinstalling the game doesn’t even fix this- and I’m pretty sure it’s as simple as changing a 0 to a 1 somewhere or something, but no idea where. I would like to get this fixed before all the Shadowlands skill changes so I don’t have to pop in and out of my spellbook constantly to see what things do. Please help!

To clarify, I have been through all the steps of removing addons, clearing cache, uninstalling and reinstalling fresh- none of that brings the tooltips back.

EDIT: ACTUALLY FIGURED IT OUT!

I have no idea how to edit or remove the original post, so here’s how you can easily disable/enable enhanced tooltips:

Disable: Type “/console UberTooltips 0” in game
Enable: Type “/console UberTooltips 1” in game

Maybe this will help someone else someday lol.

And to make Tooltips mouseover, “/console UberTooltips 2”
