If you have issues, please check the following first:
- Does this happen in browser?
- Does this happen in the original app?
- Are you using an outdated version?
- If you have connection problems, do you have a firewall?
If all of the above is false, and it's not listed in the known bugs, please report an issue.
- Unable to preload CSS
This shouldn't happen anymore, but if it does, right click the tray icon and hit "clear cache".
- App auto-updated to normal Revolt
Please make sure you downloaded the latest version! Most people have downloaded the initial release, and the one immediately after that fixed it.
You can check what version you had by looking in your downloads / history. If you downloaded before May 22, 2022, or downloaded 1.0.4 (also known as v1.0.4-d1.0.0, or any of the automated builds before that,) then you were using an outdated version.
If this still occurred on a later version, please report an issue.
