Need help with error message "Closing Dockable Window"

I am using autohotkey scripts that I can hit a key and it closes all instances of OBS and the source at the same time. It was working great but now suddenly I get this error message titled "Closing Dockable Window" You just closed a dockable window. If you'd like to show it again use the docks menu on the menu bar and there's a checkbox that says do not show this message again. The problem is the error message closes too fast for me to click that box and it's a constant thing. I haven't been able to replicate the error without running the autohotkey script. I could provide the script if it's necessary but I don't know why the error message has to disappear within half a second. If it would just stay up I could keep it from showing up. I looked in settings and global.ini and nothing helped. It prevents me from closing it all together it just shows the message instead of closing OBS every time. All of my docks are deactivated even so I don't know why I even need the error but it happens in Windowed Projector only. If I select Fullscreen projector I can use the script successfully and it closes all windows (even Windowed Projector) it's only if I'm not screen using Windowed Projector.

I found this checkbox in setting show active outputs warning on exit that was checked and I unchecked but the error remains.

I found this in C:\Program Files\obs-studio\data\obs-studio\locale

# warning when closing docks. it's frustrating that we actually need this.
DockCloseWarning.Title="Closing Dockable Window"
DockCloseWarning.Text="You just closed a dockable window. If you'd like to show it again, use the Docks menu on the menu bar."

I deleted it from the .ini and it helped somewhat. I only get the error one time then on the second time I can close it while with it there it is constantly doing it without me being able to close at all. But of course I would prefer not to see the error.

Log attached

It's not entitlement when it's been two days and you can't post my post which I don't even understand why I'm not allowed to just post your site chose to make that rule and if you mods can't enable a post within 48 freaking hours then you shouldn't have the stupid rule. Besides I signed up about 4 years ago who cares if I don't have 1,000 posts. Just stupidity all around. Don't give a flying shit if you ban me 48 hours for your post to still not show up you'd be happy about that? No you would not.
