# Console Error Logs
If you're experiencing issues with your Close application, error logs might help us in our debugging process where we'll have a better understanding of what went wrong, especially for issues we can't reproduce on our end.
## Extracting logs for the Desktop app
### Enable Logging
The Close Desktop App includes a built-in logging feature to help capture detailed diagnostic information during troubleshooting.
To log your issue:
1. Open the **main application menu**.
2. Go to **Develop****>****Enable Logging** to turn it **on.**
3. Reproduce the issue.
4. Go to **Develop****>****Enable Logging** to turn it **off.**
This will capture console messages from all major processes, including the background view.
### Accessing the Log File
Once logging is enabled and the issue has been reproduced:
1. Go to **Develop** **>****Open Config/Log Folder**. This will open the folder where your logs are stored.
2. Open the `Logs` subfolder.
