 I spend a lot of my time and energy answering technical questions, both professionally and "for fun" as a way to scratch that troubleshooting itch. How a question is asked plays a big factor in how effectively I'll be able to answer it.

 Once you've written your query, take the time to read back over it and make sure it makes sense. This is another chance to show us that you're serious about solving the problem.

 ### 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 (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.
