Hi everyone!
I’m new to Labview and have encountered an issue while trying to combine two different data types. After this attempt, the Run button is no longer functional. It seems that the problem might be related to the data type combination.
Has anyone experienced something similar or have any suggestions on how to resolve this issue and get the Run button working again? Thanks in advance for your help!

Debug your VI and implement valid operations to "combine different datatypes"! (Whatever that means in your message…)
Why don't you show your code so we can actually tell you what you did wrong?
Did you take care of the Training resources offered at the top of the LabVIEW board?

You can also click the broken RUN arrow and it will open a window listing the reason(s) it's broken. Clicking the reasons will take you to the faulty code.
This is super basic LabVIEW 101. Check out: LabVIEW Tutorial (ni.com)

Unfortunately your description is not clear at all. A run button can be "ready", "broken", or "reserved" and I have never heard the term "disabled". Is it broken? In that case it is not "disabled" and you can just click it to get a list of problems.
Can you explain what you are actually trying to do? What is "combining different datatypes"??? Do you have broken wires because of incompatible source/sinks? Are you trying to create a polymorphic VI? A malleable VI? Something else?

The full set is:

Reserved

Running - Top Level
