# Agent debugging logs

Important

          

Follow this article only if ControlUp Support has requested logs from the ControlUp for Desktops Agent

## Enable debugging

To enable debugging, set the value of the following registry key to 1: **HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Avacee\SIP\DebugLevel**

After setting the registry key, restart the ControlUp SIP Agent service.

## View and save logs in the Windows Event Log

In the Windows Event Viewer on the device, go to Windows Logs > Application and look for events from:

- SIP Agent
- Agent Manager Service
- Agent Manager Setup
- Agent Manager Setup Form
- SIP Agent Setup
- Session Events Service

Save the logs as a .EVTX file and send them to ControlUp Support.
