Common problems

Freezing

This mod will take a while to load on the first run, and if you disable and then enable it while your system is all already up and running with many software open.

Stuck on "Initializing..."

If ever a certain process gets stuck on "Initializing...", and the "Mod tasks in progress" window does not go away, restart Windhawk. If that does not work, simply add it to the exclusion list in the Advanced tab of this mod.
