For a quicker analysis of the problem or the error you have encountered by the Technical Support Service, please provide the log file. You need to send the log file after the error reappears so that the error is written to the log file.

Switch the DICOM Viewer log mode to "Debug" mode.
To do this, select the "Options" - "Settings" menu. In the "General" tab, switch the Log level setting to "Debug" mode.

If you have changed the path to the log file, or do not know its location, you can view it in the "Settings" window. You can also change the location of the log file by clicking the button that is highlighted in purple in the screenshot below.

The default log file is named "dcmviewer.log", you can change the name of the log file in the "Options" window from the screenshot above.

If the program terminated with a crash, the Viewer will write a DUMP file, which must also be submitted to the Technical Support Service.


The standard locations for the log file and DUMP file are:


Windows:
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Inobitec\Inobitec DICOM Viewer VERSION\Logs - Log file.
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Inobitec\Inobitec DICOM Viewer VERSION\Dumps - DUMP file.
The "Appdata" folder is hidden, to go to it, enter the path in the address bar in the explorer, or configure the visibility of hidden and system files and folders

Linux (using Ubuntu as an example):
/home/USER/.local/share/Inobitec/Inobitec DICOM Viewer VERSION/Logs
The ".local" directory can be hidden, to go to it, enter the path in the address bar in the file manager, or use the console. You can also configure the visibility of hidden files and folders in the system settings.

MacOS (for example 10.14):
~/Library/Application Support/Inobitec/Inobitec DICOM Viewer VERSION/Logs

USER - this is your PC username, and VERSION - this is the DICOM Viewer version.
