When you ask for support via the forum, you often need to upload (as a zip) one or all of the diagnostic files especially for problems that occur when you start or restart Cumulus.  In Windows Explorer, open the Cumulus installation folder (default is C:\Cumulus). Right-click on the 'Diags' folder, and from the pop-up menu, select 'Send to -> Compressed (zipped) Folder' (available in most Windows versions). This will create a file called Diags.zip.
