Game is unplayable due to task list in middle of screen

There is a task list smack in the middle of my screen and I can't move it or make it go away. Makes the game unplayable cause I can't see what is going on. Tried to submit a bug report but that UI is empty.

    Looks like you are trying to run an out-of-date/incompatible quest tracker add-on. Try disabling the add-on from the add-on list.

    Thats exactly what the problem was. The confusing part is that I did not have that one active before the update and have not used it in months. So, I don't know how/why the game turned it on.

    amazingly horrible. it has been problems like this since oblivion, and was present even in skyrim things like this.
    for some reason the elderscrolls titles seem to love puting things directly in the middle of the screen, like when we enter a town or pvp stuff or basicly any message at all and i truely hate it.
    in morrowind it was not like that at all, infact in morrowind any and all messages were placed discretely and politely off to the side lower right of the screen or top right of the screen and in small letters and perfect for relaxaction to read info about the town i enter or what disease i had just recieved or even the effect my weapon was having.
    in the very lower right corner of the screen it would say
    "your weapon has no effect" when i would be attacking a spirit essence because the weapon did not have an enchantment on it to hurt a spirit essence.
    but, in oblivion and skyrim the developers decided it was a good thing to put messages now into our faces and directly into our line of sight and make the game unplayable, i am glad i am not the only one who is disturbed by these messages and hope that we go back to the way it was in morrowind.

    You only need to move that Quest Tracker. Check your Addon settings. Look for wykkyds quest tracker. unluck it, and move it to where you want. or just disable it.

    i still hate these "in your face" messages.
    please place the messages in the lower right hand or top right of the screen in small letters and a descrete area that is comfortable.
    Please.

    it's not an add-on.
    this is what zenimax has put into eso, i am asking to please allow us to move it out of our face and into a small area off the side.

    1. You are replying a thread that is over a year old. ZOS decided to give us warden instead of necromancy for a new class. :(
    2. The OP stated that it WAS AN ADDON.

    didn't you read his name? he's "a student of antiquity".
    my guess is he only plays his role, even here on the forums.. digging for long lost threads and knowledge and such ;)

    As this thread is a few years old we've decided to close it for being a necro. If you are currently still having an issue with this problem you can start a new thread.
