In version 1.2.0-rc2 crash-report functionality has been added. It allows users to report issues in a better way, helping us developers to solve sneaky bugs 🐛

How to enable it

By default, the crash-report generation is turned off. To turn on the functionality, you have to enable crashreport = true entry in config.ini. You can search here for info regarding the location of the file.

Where are the crash-reports

Crash-reports are placed in a folder called logs:

  • In Linux and macOS they should be placed in $HOME/.arduino-create/logs
  • In windows they should be placed in C:\users\<username>\.arduino-create\logs

How to clean the generated files

If you have files inside logs directory you should be able to click an entry in the tray icon's menu called Remove crash reports This will delete all the logs folder.

If there are no crash-reports to clean the option is disabled

Remember to upload the crash-report when opening an issue 💌
