Window fog
When I turn my defrost on in the morning all the windows fog up and stay that way until I turn the heat off. I also smell the anti freeze when I turn the heat on. There is no leakage in the car from the heater core. Would a bad heater core cause this.

yup.....pin hole size leaks .... you won't see the droplets but smelling it is a dead give away plus the added moisture...

Good chance a small leak would drain from the heater box into the engine compartment. Look underneath the heater box for signs of coolant. I have to agree with the others, probably time for a new core.
It's just a matter of time.
