In `@installation/desktop/faq.mdx`:
- Line 96: Update the Linux entry in the FAQ to include a supported, copyable
launch command or a direct reference to the Linux log location. Keep the
existing real-time logging guidance while making the instruction actionable for
users.
- Around line 85-99: Remove the leading pipe characters from every line inside
the Accordion titled “How do I check Comfy Desktop startup logs?”, including the
platform instructions, code fences, and closing tag, so the content uses normal
MDX/Markdown formatting.
- Around line 100-104: Update the uninstall FAQ accordion content to avoid
claiming the listed steps “fully” remove Comfy Desktop; either change that
wording to “To uninstall the app and installations” or add the documented macOS
cleanup paths and warnings for remaining settings, logs, shared models, and
outputs.

| |When Comfy Desktop fails to start or behaves unexpectedly, you can check the startup logs: | ||
| | | ||
| |- **Windows:** Open File Explorer and navigate to `%APPDATA%\Comfy-Desktop\logs\`. Look for the most recent `.log` file. You can also run Comfy Desktop from the command line to see real-time output: | ||
| | ```powershell | ||
| | & "C:\Program Files\Comfy-Desktop\Comfy Desktop.exe" | ||
| | ``` | ||
| |- **macOS:** Open Terminal and run: | ||
| | ```bash | ||
| | /Applications/Comfy\ Desktop.app/Contents/MacOS/Comfy\ Desktop | ||
| | ``` | ||
| |- **Linux:** Open a terminal and run the app from the command line to see logs in real time | ||
| | | ||
| |For ComfyUI engine-level logs (not the Desktop app), check the console output when launching a ComfyUI instance from the Desktop app. You can see it in the instance's **Logs** tab. | ||

Remove the leading | characters from the MDX block.
The new Accordion content is pipe-prefixed, unlike the surrounding Markdown. This can make the block render as pipe-delimited text instead of a normal MDX Accordion. Use unprefixed Markdown/MDX lines.

Make the Linux instructions actionable.
This line tells users to run the app but provides neither an executable command nor a log path. Add the supported Linux launch command or link to the Linux log location.

| |<Accordion title="How do I uninstall Comfy Desktop?"> | ||
| |Comfy Desktop and its installations are separate on disk. To fully remove: | ||
| | | ||
| |1. **Delete the installations** from within the app (right-click → Remove) or delete the installation folders manually | ||
| |2. **Uninstall the app** using your system's standard method (Add/Remove Programs on Windows, drag to Trash on macOS, package manager on Linux) |

Do not claim this “fully” removes the application yet.
The macOS guide documents that uninstall leaves app settings, logs, shared models, and outputs behind at ~/Library/Application Support/Comfy Desktop and ~/ComfyUI-Shared. Add OS-specific cleanup steps and warnings, or change “To fully remove” to “To uninstall the app and installations.”
