Troubleshooting an empty console

If your Java console only contains the help information, as shown in the following image, then you have not accessed the console information we need.

Some possible reasons for an empty console (and some solutions):

• You closed the FXGame or FXTrade platform before opening the console. (Open the trading platform again.)


• You clicked the Clear button and removed the log information. (Close and reopen the trading platform.)


• You opened a different Java console; for example, from the Microsoft Ineternet Explorer menus. (Make sure you open the Java console window using the methods described above.)
