I recently upgraded from windows 10 to 11 and now when I load in a game and plugin I get this message

Error number:0
Event: Compile Error
Raised by: Plugin: Health_Bar_miniwindow

[string "Sandbox"]:1: '<name>' expected near '\'

I don't know much about coding with Lua or this plugin but I would love for this to stop popping up every time I load my game.

Try looking at File -> Global Preferences -> Lua.

See if there is a stray backslash there. You could probably remove whatever is in that "Sandbox" box, and it should work.

That line should not be there. Remove it.

That worked. Weird, only started after I updated to windows 11. I'll have to check all of my worlds. Thank you!

It's a global configuration, so it would affect all worlds, and the fix will fix all worlds.

Realistically, you also should not have MUSHclient in C:\Program Files\ and should instead put it into a location not locked down by UAC.
