### Be Precise
The more details you can provide about your problem, the better.
- What system/device/application are you using? Be specific about the model and/or version.
- What system/device/application are you using? Be specific about the model and/or version (and please don't just say "the latest version" - share the complete version number).
- What are the symptoms of the problem? Are there any error messages? If so, include those *in full*. Screenshots can be a big help here.
- When did the problem start? Is this a new problem or has it never worked? What (if anything) changed before the problem started?
- What steps can we take to reproduce the problem? List the exact steps without any shortcuts.
- What steps have you already taken to try and solve the problem? Don't say "I've tried everything" (which tells us nothing); tell us *exactly* what you've tried.
- If your research yielded other reports of the same problem but no solution, include links to those reports.
