How to enable debug logging

2. Add a RuntimeLogging registry key under the following registry key:
   
   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\WEF\Developer\
   
   

   Note

   If the Developer key does not already exist under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\WEF\, complete the following steps to create it.
   a. Right-click the WEF key and select New > Key
   b. Name the new key Developer
3. Set the default value of the RuntimeLogging key to the full path of the file where you want the log to be written.
