{% hint style="info" %}
If the **AppData** folder is not visible, select **Show Hidden Folders** from the **(2) View** dropdown menu from any Windows Explorer window.
{% endhint %}

**(3)** Only the `log_insp_2026-02-27_13-57-28-706.txt` files are needed. The most recent logs are the best ones to share after recreating the issue..

NOTE: The logs are now sorted in the *opposite* direction alphabetically, newest are at the end (if sorted alphabetically).
