Need help / NPC bar - color

Yesterday I was going through some addon and game settings and I recall at one point changing a couple of color settings for what I thought were my health/magicka/stamina bars. Now today I notice that all of my friendly NPC health bars are all red rather than its usual blue color.

I've been through every addon and game setting I can see and for the life of me I cannot find where to change the color of friendly NPC bars back to the default color.

If anyone has suggestions, I'd be thrilled to hear them...

    Well as first step, i would disable all addons. Then play with normal game settings and make the bars visible(should be normal color, default game UI does not allow color changes). If even that does not help then do a game repair.

    If it does help, then just enable the addons one by one and watch which one is the culprit.

    I disabled all addons, but the health bar (circled in the pic) is still there. I'm fairly certain this bar was from one of my addons and not default game UI, but how can it still be there now that all of my addons are disabled?

    This is how it looks now (for Players / NPC / Enemy, bar is red)

    I found an old screenshot in my folder of how it used to look before yesterday, if I recall correctly the bar would show red on an enemy, blue on a player and green on a friendly NPC.

    the health bar is always suppost to be there with the name and level and caption......if you want it to color the bar on target blue/green/red its :

    function OnTarget(Event, Unit)
    local r1, g1, b1 = GetUnitReactionColor("reticleover")
    ZO_TargetUnitFramereticleoverBarLeft:SetColor(r1, g1, b1, 1)
    ZO_TargetUnitFramereticleoverBarRight:SetColor(r1, g1, b1, 1)
    end

    EVENT_MANAGER:RegisterForEvent("Target", EVENT_RETICLE_TARGET_CHANGED, OnTarget)

    thats the beginging of an addon lol....keep in mind you half to disable it and reload to turn it off/on

    That is the default way HP bars are shown. Yesterday I reisntallaed my NA client after deleting every setting, addon and gamefile (I knew wich folders to look for).
    And that is exactly how it looks. How they always looked without addons:
    Red Color. No numbers (precentile or otherwise). Name and Trader Type shown under it.

    Omg, it never occurred to me that I was looking at default, what ever mod was changing it, I must have been using it for so long that I forgot what default looked like.

    Thanks for the heads up!

    The numbers look like FTC's Modified Unit Frame Bars (FTC options do not mention that /reloadui is required on change).

    Not sure about the color. But I think there was an addon for the coloration somewhere. Maybe in Wykkyds stuff?

    Turns out that it was Azurah that was missing. So glad I figured that out because I think stock would have been a deal breaker for me...
