# Troubleshooting and Support

### Troubleshooting and Support

Encountered an issue? Don't worry! Check out the troubleshooting tips below or [contact](https://www.motivewave.com/contact.htm) our support team for assistance.

### Common Issues and Solutions:

1. **Application Won't Launch:**

Ensure that your system meets the minimum requirements outlined in the [System Requirements ](/user-guide/quick-start-guide.md#system-requirements)section. Try restarting your computer and launching the application again. Check for any antivirus or firewall software that may be blocking the application and temporarily disable it to see if the issue persists.&#x20;

2. **Application Crashes or Freezes:**

Make sure you have the latest updates installed for your operating system and graphics drivers including the latest version of MotiveWave™. Try closing other applications and background processes that may be consuming system resources.&#x20;

3. **Performance Issues:**

Close unnecessary tabs, windows, or applications running in the background to free up system resources. Adjust the application settings to optimize performance, such as reducing the number of studies, charts or tickers. If you are using Order Flow studies such as Volume Imprint, try reducing  your Imprint Count or selecting Use Historical Minute Bars if you are using a daily timeframe or higher.&#x20;

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.motivewave.com/user-guide/quick-start-guide/troubleshooting-and-support.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
