Not really sure what I messed with to cause the MQ window to dissappear. Prior to vanishing, I was messing with autologin etc etc.. Secondly, when I am logging on a new window pops that says MacroQuest Console that consumes a quarter of the display. No clue what it is or what it does. I would appreciate some guidance since I am lost

Would be helpful if you give us the information behind "etc etc". What else were you doing? And had everything been working before the "etc etc"?
I think you're referring to the old MQ chat window. The old window is called MQ2ChatWnd, and the command /mqmin will minimize it. You can completely unload/load it with /plugin mq2chatwnd unload/load (I also believe you now drop the MQ2 prefix)
As for the new window, I think you are referring to /mqconsole -
I dont have an MQ2ChatWnd. What I was working on prior to everything going haywire or me walking away to help wife. Trying to set up Autologin in my macroquest ini file . Also I was tweaking the invisi command hotkey trying to see why the characters (cleric and enchanter were not casting).
None of team presently is logging into macroquest.

so mq is running in your taskbar, and you have characters logged into eq, and mq is not loaded on those characters? did you log them in with autologin or manually? did you unload mq in game and now can't get it to reload and haven't tried to relog the toons? what is the indication of "team isnt logging into macroquest"?

You can resize the MacroQuest Console window like any others, by dragging the corners or sides. And if you are experiencing what I have occasionally, the MQ Chat window is still there but blank (no text inside it). then I found that you can open your MQ settings (click on the EQ button) go to the top of the menu that pops up and click on Settings. Then go down to ChatWnd and click on it and then change the font size and back again to get the text to show back up. Hope that helps.

You wouldn't be getting a MacroQuest Console window if you didn't have MQ already loaded. And Autologin won't work without MQ being loaded. You can tell if MQ is loaded by looking down in the lower right hand corner where your clock and date info is at. Close to that should be a purple MQ if not check your "^". Left click on it and it pops up a box with icons in it. The purple MQ should be there.
Not trying to be dickish here but I have found that when you get things screwed up (from experience, believe me) it is best to start from scratch or the beginning. Like getting the MQ launcher up and running. Then starting MQ by clicking the Launch MQ button in it. And checking it is loaded from the above. THEN starting to work on Autologin.

Starting from the beginning unloaded and reloaded redguides. Reloaded all of the CWTN plugins .
Issues there : Plugin Manager window is the window not showing up . Have gone through the steps to reload /pluginman = nothing happening (window not popping up showing the different plugins available.
Issue 2 : Group Window there are no tabs (followme , come to me) researched per the site and no reference to them except how they worked. They worked great and I used a bunch till I did something to make them vanish.
Directions to solve would be appreciated

Not sure why you need plugin manager. Anyways, need to reload UI for the UI to come up iirc.
https://www.redguides.com/community/resources/mq2moveutils.144/ need to be loaded for your fun buttons.

Mq console has nothing to do with the cwtn class plugins.
If you want information on the cwtn class plugins UI, you would look at the sticky

Using IS Boxer and windowed mode I have had it poof off the screen a few times somehow. Basically it get set to an area off the viewable screen. Just go into the MQ2ChatWnd.ini and you can change the coordinates it is at - or if you can't or don't want to figure it out, just :
1) unload the plugin with "/plugin unload chatwnd"
2) then within the MQ2ChatWnd.ini delete the section for your character and save it
3) then "/plugin load chatwnd" and it will be at the default location again.
