title: Recovering from crashes | ||
description: How to fix your client if it crashes on startup | ||

|
||
When Discord updates, there is a chance for moonlight (or the extensions you use) to break. In the event your Discord client is broken, follow these steps to recover it. | ||
|
||
## Report the issue | ||
|
||
In order for us to fix a bug, we need to know about it first! Bugs with moonlight itself can be reported [on GitHub issues](https://github.com/moonlight-mod/moonlight/issues) or in [the Discord server](https://discord.gg/FdZBTFCP6F). Bugs with extensions can be reported on the developer's Git repository (if issues are open). | ||
|
||
:::note | ||
Please check if the issue has already been reported beforehand. Reporting the same issue multiple times quickly overwhelms our ability to provide support. | ||

|
||
## Update moonlight | ||
|
||
moonlight, and your extensions, can be updated from Moonbase. If you cannot access it, moonbase will attempt to let you update from the crash screen itself. | ||
|
||
If you cannot update from the crash screen, you can update moonlight using the moonlight installer (or however you installed moonlight). | ||
|
||
## Reset your config | ||
|
||
The moonlight installer features a "Reset config" button. Clicking it will backup and reset your config. When you restart Discord, your client will act like you installed moonlight for the first time, with all extensions disabled and all settings reset. | ||
|
||
You can also edit the config file manually, if you wish. See [the manual installation instructions](/using/install#manual-installations) for the config path. | ||
|
||
## Unpatch moonlight | ||
|
||
If all else fails, you can unpatch moonlight from the moonlight installer (or however you installed moonlight), and wait for an update to moonlight. |
