## Alternative

An alternative is to install the **[ExtensiveSupportLogging]** <br>
plugin this creates a zip folder of the relevant log files.

If you're experiencing performance issues, we might ask <br>
you to connect the CPU profiler in this plugin and attach <br>
the collected data to your support ticket.
