Enable Debug Log

Use Enable Debug Log to begin recording a log saved in the My Documents folder on Windows or Documents on Mac. You can send a Debug Log to LightBurn Support to aid in troubleshooting or bug fixing.

Enabling and Disabling the Debug Log

Go to Help → Enable Debug Log to begin recording a log of the actions you take in LightBurn. A check mark will appear next to it when it's enabled, and logging will continue until you select Enable Debug Log again to disable it, or restart LightBurn.

Debug Log Disabled

No check mark — Debug Log not enabled

Debug Log Enabled

Check mark — the Debug Log is enabled

The Debug Log will automatically save to My Documents on Windows or Documents on Mac, with the file name LightBurnLog.txt.

The Debug Log is cumulative — each time you use Enable Debug Log it will append to any existing log, so it's a good idea to delete it after you're finished and have sent the log to LightBurn Support.
